As I am not so knowledgeable about them but like the look of a cuffed pair of jeans with them sort of like Get Smart's style. I don't like square or round toe but something inbetween

You have probably got a hundred different shoe makers that would fit these criteria. If you want to look like GS (or at least in the shoe/cuff aspect of his style) I think you should go with Paul Smith. If you want to accentuate a certain feature (toe, sleek, substantial, brogue, cap, blucher, split etc...), it would help if you were a little more specific. My favorite shoe to wear with slim-fit denim (APC New Cure) is a vintage brogue from Church's or a Ferragamo cap-toe. They (Church's) are really hard to find (because the vintage are so much better than what is being put out today) but they are heavy, substantial and sleek. You have been a member long enough to have a pretty specific idea about what would look best on you and be most versatile in your wardrobe. Do you post in WAYWT? I hope this post wasn't construed as rude in any way, I just think you have a better idea of what you want than you let on. I also fear I made several grammatical errors but I have a naked twister game starting in about 20 minutes and I haven't even begun applying the shea butter (shea butter + naked twister = hardcore).
