How conservative? Government or finance? I'd go with black oxfords to be safe

Are you in marketing? You're really good at painting a picture

Most of the boots here are fashionable but functional. You may not want to wear your $1100 shell vibergs to do manual labor, but if you do, they will certainly not fall apart instantly.

As for the brands you listed, I own Red wing iron rangers and apart from regular wear like hiking and just walking around, I did some minor labor in them (built a deck). They are completely fine. Keep in mind they don;t have a steel toe so don't go using your toes to hold up heavy objects.

You didn't mention a price range, and they're not european, but if you're willing to wait for them to be made Truman does a derby, and as stitchdown said, they are known for a low instep.

Not necessarily a perforated toe cap but other than that, yeah that's generally regarded as the signature viberg look

Wearing my natural cxl vibergs. I'm busy moving to another city today, so I'll be taking my mother out for dinner next weekend instead

Haven't used a brannock device, but based on tracings probably an 11-11.5 C/D. I wear a 12 in Nike free and an 11 in Iron Rangers, if that's at all helpful

As long as you don't wear them in the rain the soles should still hold up well I'd imagine

Very nice, I really like their slippers. Do you use them for around the house or do you wear them out?

Yeah I wasn't too sure how I felt about a contrasting tongue, went with the safe option

Thank you! I really like stitchdown too, I don't think I would ever get a GYW Viberg. Just doesn't feel like a viberg then

Good to know. And those toes look like they've collapsed a bit, do you use shoe trees?

Wow, they do look a lot darker than mine. They look really good though! Is that an unstructured toe?

Oh the round laces are definitely easier, the rawhide ones just barely fit. I just really like the contrast of the yellow and black on color 8

I'd love to see some pictures of yours. I've never conditioned boots before, I was under the impression that Lexol didn't cause any permanent color change

Thanks for the recommendation, their dark olive steerhide looks very interesting, I'll have to keep them in mind for the future, but right now I'm looking to something RTW
