The last time I wore patent leather shoes and belt (the color of both was white) was on the golf course in the 1970's. 
I like well shined shoes for umpiring (both baseball and fastpitch softball) and officiating basketball. Two weeks ago I officiated a basketball game and my partner also umpires college baseball. He wore patent leather shoes and belted slacks (western cut pockets) with a black patent leather belt. He looked terrible.
