Where can I find shoes like these?

I like the look of these shoes, but I would like to find some that are more in line with the quality of AE. I like the rounded toe with rubber sole and stitching around the nose. I have seen some AEs that are similar, but for some reason they don't appeal to me as much as these. Can anyone suggest any other brands to take a look at?

Thank you.

The Cole Haan "City" is somewhat similar. Better quality than J. Crew, I'd say, maybe less than AE.

Paraboot Avignon, more elegant, but along the same lines.

Paraboot looks pretty nice. Do you know where I can get a pair on-line?

That shoe is (almost) a dead ringer for the canonical JM Weston demi-chasse (Ref. 598 with a leather sole and Ref. 696 with a rubber sole).
