Hi Everyone,
I got a new job in business advisory and will be in-front of clients a decent amount as a result. I've been upgrading my wardrobe and am now on the shoes section. I have a pair of black, plain, captoes and recently ordered a Fifth Avenue from shoebank in Dark Chili Burnished.
I was a little disappointed when I got the shoe because, aside from the minor nicks in the leather, the front part of the shoe is blackened. It looks almost as though I got caught in the rain and the water has stained the front of the shoe. Is that how the shoe is normally supposed to look (i.e. or is this a big flaw in this particular factory second) and is this type of color acceptable for business casual wear? Obviously, if I wore a suit, I'd probably go with black to be safe, but I'm just curious what the consensus is on the "burnished" vs "standard" (I guess) color and which is generally better to get?
Thanks!
