Thundermarch may surpass DieWW.. Regardless they are in the executive board of shoes.
Pick up those Dovers, and cross the proverbial shoe bridge when it comes.
Whilst I am proponent for Hand Welted hand last etc etc., a good year welt is still a great build. Hence, the Dover is a fantastic buy. As a proud owner of Doak Dovers, I would steer you towards that color.
If you do decide to buy pairs thereafter, DieWW brings up a talking point about a chiseled toe. They have inherently dressy traits. Consequently, they become less versatile. A round toe is extremely versatile, while an almond toe is mildy more sleek.
I have a pair of Y. Fukudas which look extremely sleek and chiseled, however when I wear them with odd trousers my wife claims I look like a ballerina haha. So be mindful of balance lines with either your body and clothing.
Thanks for telling me something to think about
