[randomkoreandude]

anyone got a preference? and why?

 

[robbie]

bluchers can be worn with or without socks making them a year round shoe and better choice IMO

can someone please provide a picture of what a good blucher looks like?

Bluchers and boat shoes fill two different niches, imo. I love the bluchers I have (brogue) and wear them often, both with pants and jeans.

Get both.

I have a feeling the O.P. meant boats vs camp mocs...

Also, I tend to think of bluchers as being in contrast to balmorals, not in contrast to boat shoes....

I like boat shoes for summer and camp mocs for winter.

The OP is specifically talking about blucher mocs here, I think.

those bluchers look like old man shoes, and i know a lot of us guys like to either slightly ride above, or lay low under whats really trendy and stick with classics --- but those are old man shoes, bordering SAS Factory territory.

boat shoes all the way
