Hey all. I am trying to find a certain style of black boots but I can't seem to find what I am looking for. I am looking for a pair of black lace up boots that I can wear with slimmer fitting jeans. Something more on the rugged side than the dressy side but not too much like a work boot. Maybe something between an Alden

These are my Alden Black Cordovan Plain Toe Boots from earlier in the thread.

They are rugged SOB's and can be dressed up to a point. They are understated but noticed.

I have been seeing this particular type of shoes worn around SoHo NYC but I cannot seem to track them down. They look a lot like these LLBean signature mocs but with black laces:

Does anyone know what they might be? I want them bad. I would settle for these too but they are out of stock.
