get these. chelseas, they look almost formal. durable rubber soles. no laces, you slip em on and off.
on second thought, don't get these. i don't want you faggots copying me

good.

if your threshold is 200 bucks it's real fucking easy. actually describe what you're looking for.

The main use should be for work in an office with no interaction with the public.
Something not so slobby that it would stand out during a meeting and not so dressy that it would overdress for the everyday.

Also, commuting by subway.

btw, is this sole stitching just a decorative gimmick?

look everyone the only guy on /fa/ with the lowest tier doc chelsea boots.

>>14111941
you will find these shoes too dressy for everyday, but give it a whirl. ALSO city commutes will start wearing down slim soles immediately.

made in england doc marten 1461 is a good middle ground that dresses up surprisingly well and works in office environments (esp. in cities)

looks functional to me, but its not the best picture

I guess I'll make a shopping tour tomorrow and try something on.

first poster again. get derbies in black. i have the bad feeling that you are first time here. you seem to have even less tste than the average faggot. try to get them with a black gum/plastic sole and non learher laces. also go for plain leather not suede or this spanish like leather with paterns on it. gl nigger.

the pair you posted are enough for a man under 30yo, you can pull a smart casual look with them or wear them to go out without looking out of place.
Don't get black shoes, unless you are a kid who dresses always in black, brown is far more versatile

consider astorflex as well if you want to go the chukka route, about the same price as clarks and made in italy

Clark's DBs don't give you much traction on wet surfaces.

Crepe sole makes the boots comfy but not practical enough to be your primary, much less only pair of shoes.

Just get a pair of black derbies. Easy to dress up or down.
