According to my research;

1) Allen Admonds does not have a black semi brogue captoe w/ medallion.

2) C&J does not have in black.

3) I don't want AS or the one they made for BB.

What are more other options within the price range o C&J and AS?

Thanks.

Well, I must have overlooked C&J 's Welbeck, though I did not like the shape of the medallion on it.

I forgot to say that I am not fond of shell cordovans.

I have the Timothy (one of my favorites) and it fit true to size after starting out a bit snug. I have pretty wide feet too. I would def suggest this shoe even in black.

One might still find the Allen-Edmonds Colton or Lexington about although they've been on closeout for some time.

Strange. I bought both the brown and black and had to go a half size up on both.

What's wrong with the BB? They've got one or two quite nice captoe brogues, styling and quality are quite equal to AE or CJ.
