Question to the many Indy boot owners (particularly the CXL/non-shell make-ups): in what context do you usually wear them? Strictly casual? Office wear? Elsewhere?
For reference, I'm a physician in a traditionally "well dressed" outpatient specialty, and nearly every person I work with (including another doc and two physician assistants) wear scrubs and sneakers/clogs all day every day. My standard dress is chinos (or the rare occasional slacks) and a button down shirt, +/- white coat. So, on the more casual spectrum of standard American "business casual" dress. My shoes are mostly CJ/AE/Alden/Rancourt/OSB bluchers or loafers.
I'm mulling over whether my natty CXL Indy boots would fit in, or look out of place. If you went to a physician who was dressed as I mentioned above, but was wearing natty CXL Indys, would you view them as any "less professional"? Briefly ignoring your Alden bias, as I doubt many/any of my patients will know what boots they are.
Thanks for indulging my neuroses.
