I simply like the design (I have a couple of them).
Now thinking to buy semi-brogue (half brogue)...

I love wingtips which can accentuate the sleek look. They don't have to be brogue of course. EG Beaulieus are my faves.

I'm 26 and just got some AE Bel Air wingtips in black. Are they too old-man for me?
Me think yes.
Wait another 10 or 15 year.

It's been 13 years and I just got my second pair of wingtips - these ones from Carmina and are badass!

I have a couple of pairs of Church's wingtips. Very versatile. I wear them with chinos or wool trousers. I have broughs as well for variety. Black cap toe oxfords are my more dressy shoes. All are Church's, before Prada.
