    I appreciate your response. I have had Birkenstocks and they were comfortable. Good to know that's a relevant benchmark. You are probably right about not to over-think it!

    Shoes made in the United Arab Emirates (UAE)

    Shoes for formal occasions

    Thanks for the advice. I understand that black shoes are more conservative than other colors. How much better are black Park Avenues than the black Waltons for conservative dress? If the black Waltons are more than sufficient, I'd opt for a different color and style over the black PA. Is the...
