Which shoes?

I need to replace these quick, so apologies for the repost from the "What Should I Buy" thread.

I have basically two brown dress shoes and two black. Just discovered today that the "beater" pair of black shoes - some not-great square-toed rockports - had almost completely separated from the sole in the heel. Obviously, these need replacing.

Other black pair is a brand-new (this past Christmas) cap-toed Oxford by Johnston & Murphy. Yeah, sorry.

I'm on a budget so I'd like to keep this second pair right around $100. If it exonerates previous choices, my issue is that I have big feet, and take generally a 15W or 16D (sometimes 16W too; depends on the maker). I'd also like something that it's possible to walk around in a lot without falling apart (I'm in a city, have no car, walk to train to work, etc. etc.).

Any tips? Thanks!

Head over to a Nordstrom Rack and you should be able to find something in your price range and in your size. They may even have some clearance stuff still available, which can get you close to Allen Edmonds. Let us know how it goes.

DSW is another option. The combination of huge feet and small budget is a problem.
