Really I thought the yellow tortiouse was actually the best part but lenses are a little overkill, too much like the mcqueen's

They're probably not actually that color. Lenses always show up a wildly different color than they look online.

no sorry I meant rip-off as in expensive and not worth it, rather than being particularly derivative.

Oh, sorry - misunderstood you. Yea, they are rather expensive and that's why I'm having second thoughts.

I like the style and colour. I have no experience of Diemme but I think they have good reputation.

I have that exact model (c store collab) and they look great, but fit kinda strange (smallish, but still not sure if I should have sized up).

If so, I really don't think you should get these. I had a pair of similar workwear / heritage boots a couple of years ago and they pretty much only work within that style (repro selvedge denim, thick knits, parkas, down vests, OCBDs, etc...)

You are quite right... Those are black and I don't own any proper winter boots though.

would wear with black denim.
