Hey everyone!

So, I'm been browsing shoes lately and came across a pair of chukkas from Enzo Bonafe, which caught my eye.https://www.ebay.com/itm/2263800808...GEYndGiT-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

At first blush, they're fantastic looking shoes. However, I have a pair of suede C&J chukkas, pictured below.

Also great shoes. I'm trying not to overdo it on shoes, so I've committes to only one pair of chukkas at this time. If you needed somerthing for business casual office days, casual Fridays or taking it up a notch for a weekend outfit around town, what would you choose?

Both might work depending on your outfit. I'm not liking how chiseled the toe is on the C&J ones. Their Chiltern model is a lot more relaxed and versatile.

That mirrors my thoughts. I like the C&J, except that toe is just too aggressive. I thought I'd be good with it, but after about a year, I'm still not enjoying it.

Reminds me when last 348 was super popular with shoes like the Tetbury. Really didn't age well.
