Hi

I'm in the market for a new pair of black oxfords for a series of weddings I've got coming up.

I found these on Blue Fly and they look like a good shoe, with relatively simple styling. However, I must admit I don't know much about the quality of A. Testoni shoes.

http://www.bluefly.com/A-Testoni-black-leather-cap-toe-casual-oxfords/p/319546401/detail.fly

Does anyone have any thoughts/experiences to share?

Alternatively, does anyone have an recommendations for a good website to buy oxfords from?

I'm not looking to spend more than $300.

Thanks for taking the time to read!

Thanks for the feedback Mr Engineer. I was about to get the Testonis but looks like I might head down the English shoe path

At that price point... are you talking about Loake?

I am ... or something from the Barker Professional range, but I'm starting to think I need to increase my budget

The conscious here seems to be that anything from Loake that isn't from the 1880 range is not worth it...

Do you have any recommendations?

Nothing from personal experience (waiting for Christmas, alas), but if you're willing to go American, I'd recommend AE based on the consensus around here.
