Hi all, I'm looking for a pair of black brogues / semi brogues boots that will go well with jeans and maybe even flexible enough for dress.


I like the pair of Loake Slider below (in black). But I wanted see if there are other suggestions out there for < $200

Much appreicated!

i'd go with some thing from ether EG or G&G i think there has been one a two threads of late that you can refer too.

however if you are more budget sensative then trinkers or C&J might be the trick for some thing cool - another idea would be alden, have a look at leathersoles site and see what is available a nice #8 or black shell boot could be yours!

I recommend Alden wingtip high boots or the SF boot offered by Leathersoul.

That was my initial thought, but at 600+ they are three times his max. cost.

if those loakes are under $200, that is probably your best bet. I can't think of any quality shoemaker making wingtip boots under $200.

The only thing about those Loake Sliders that would cause me to think twice is the elastic. For me, elastic and fine leather don't mix...
