Sounds like a bit more wear would help out the shoes to break in at the heels.

It would be unfair to say because I prefer the fit (more snug), and aesthetic appeal of the Chelseas. Consequently, that gets worn more often. I kind of forgot about the Audley after I picked up the Chelsea hahaha.
What you said makes me to replace Audley to Chelsea haha. Can I ask you which sole did you picked up for Chelsea? Leather sole or R1 sole?

For sure. But if you have EG shoes with rubber sole, would you share with me how's their slim rubber sole?

I actually do not own any EG Oxfords with Rubber soles. I own several Dovers that have a rubber sole, but due to the ruggedness of the shoe you would not get a feel for the more refined silhouette that a Chelsea or a Cadogan would offer with that rubber sole.

I would guess a few of the boys here would have an Oxford with a rubber sole.

These galways keep calling me. I’m a sucker for blue/navy with all clothing although not sure how versatile these will be. Anyone have them?

I don't have these but I have a dark brown utah and then the rosewood CC versions of the Galway--a shoe so nice you've got to buy it twice :)

I love the Utah leather so I would say go for it as the Galway lust never goes away and it's a sweet boot.

I have a Dark Oak and mink suede plus a chestnust with chestnut Utah on its way. So really this would be a third Galway. I’m thinking this navy might be hard to match up with my outfits
