Men's Boat Shoes

[Sam]

The boat boot is an abomination. It's like a Frankenstein's monster kind of creation that should never have been allowed to live! I'm at the front of the angry village mob wielding the biggest pitchfork when it comes to those things.

Suit yourself! They've filled in a gap or two perfectly for me, so I'll stand by them. They're not the classiest things around, of course, but they have a bit of character about them. They bridge a gap between the workwear and nautical trends.
But I'm digressing.
I'm barking up a similar tree, but how about a slightly less ostentatious pair of leather chukkas?

If that's not your style either, then you'll have to go for a different style for your AW footwear; sounds like a casual brogue might be the thing for you.

I would go for some Folk shoes if you are looking at chukka style shoe/boot Mens Folk Shoes , if you shop around you can get them cheaper elsewhere. I've almost bought the Armstrong in bitter choc, just never been 100% sure about them.

I think those chukka boots look really good
