Now, if it was Chapel v. Westmister... That would be a tougher decision.

The more rounded looks better with street wear to me. The sleeker longer last of the Lobbs is more formal to my way looking at it.

For casual street looks why such a formal finish? Wouldn't it be better in a suede or scotch grain or something a bit less dressy?

Agreed. Chapel or Vale v. Westminister is close. I think Vale > Oundle.

Westminster - I think a chiseled toe looks better with Oxfords and Monks while a rounded with Derbys and Loafers.

However, I am not sure what you mean with 'casual street life ' - sounds like trendy jeans, t-shirts, sweaters, Oakleys, etc.? If so none of these shoes will work.

Diesel and JL/EG doesn't sound like a good combo.
