New pair of shoes, what do I need?

[pegasus]

Hello SF

Below is a picture of my shoes. As a College student I only dress up in a suit once or twice a year, therefore I feel that my black captoes are sufficient. On a daily basis I wear khakis and dark blue chinos paired with a OCBD, a nice sweater and a Barbour jacket, whit this outfit I am almost always wearing the boat shoes. I am looking for a nice welted shoe that will fill the gap between the boat shoes and my chukkas, ie. something I that will be nice, but casual that I am able to wear in colder rainier months. What would you recommend?

Thanks

EG Malvern in chestnut or Edwardian antique. Can be worn with a suit or even jeans.

Nice shoes. But my budget i around 600$

Maybe an Oxford would be to formal. I was thinking of something like a classic blucher or brougue wingtip like the one you posted, but with a derby clossure.

I think any of these would be good choices:

Alden All Weather Walker
Alden Shell PTB
Alden Shell Longwing
C&J Shell Chukka with Dainite (below, but i guess you already have a chuckka though...)
C&J Pebble Grain boot with Dainite (below)
C&J Darlton wingtip
C&J Darlton PTB (below)
C&J Pebble Wingtip w/ Dainite
AS Burgundy Pebble PTB for BB with Dainite - only $199 right now

Thank you! What a nice list, all sort of what I am looking for, but I am still in doubt about brogue or not. I really like the look of the shell. The first picture of the two similar pairs, I really like those, but can't seem to find them, are they C&J for Ralph Lauren?

Yea they are C&J for Ralph Lauren.

I've just looked at RL site. Nice shoes. I really like the Darlton in shell. Unfortunately I live in a country in Europe that doesn't have a RL store. I will have to wait to see if they come op i B/S or have someone to buy them for me in the states. Do they ever go on sale?

First you need some more cedar shoe trees.

Nice Economists by the way.

Why are your shoes sitting on magazines?
