Balmoral boots with a suit?

[MalfordOfLondon]

Thanks for all the comments. I admit you don't see many brown shoes with business suits in London. When you do - they're usually paired with awful bicycle toe shoes.

I really think this only holds when in London.
What do you gents say?

I'll get some at the weekend. They were subs at the C&J sale - was the only ones there. I was quite lucky I think.

The people at C&J may feel the exact same way.

There wasn't actually anything wrong with them as far as I could see and the price was too good to pass up.

Looks like a nice boot.
