I'm considering buying a new pair of shoes during the Made in America sale. I currently own:
Allen Edmonds:
Black Cliftons
Brown Fifth Avenue
Chili Dalton boots
Brown McGraw loafers
Merlot Chester wingtips
Non-Allen Edmonds shoes
Black oxfords
brown and black Johnston & Murphy bluchers
black wingtips (old and worn; I basically only wear them in bad weather)
I am looking to add a pair of shoes that can go from "day to night" -- that I can wear with a suit to my business-formal government office, but wear out to a bar afterwards without looking too stuffy. Can anybody recommend a pair? I am thinking of the McGregors in either bourbon or walnut, but am open to other suggestions, in part because I think that, when worn casually, they might be too similarly detailed to my Daltons. I'm a bit concerned that walnut (which I think looks terrific with jeans and cords) might look a little too casual with a navy suit and trad-ish tie.
