What do you wear this shoe with? Is it versatile?

if you're having second thoughts on both shoes to this extent, this tells me that you should just pass.

I don't really have any second thoughts about the second pair, other than fit/sizing.

Any comments on the maker of the suede Borrelli?

Don't go to the Italians for British style shoes and vice versa.

I agree. I can't put my finger on it, but they look like cheaply made wannabe expensive looking suede captoes. They're just...uninspiring.

Post other suede captoes under $300?

Have you try to get some Church's or JM WESTON on sales?
They have suede models and they look better than the two you have posted..

Got my C&J Westfields in tobacco suede for just over $300 (~$330) from Pediwear.

What's 30 bucks when you're getting such an upgrade in quality AND style.

Anyone else getting an Allen Edmonds vibe from this shoe?

Moo, there are so many sporty, dressy suede shoes that look much better than that.

How about these C&J

Or, kick it up a few notches and try these Santoni's with the darkened toe
