How versatile are these Derby Grant Stone Shoes (Brown/Crimson)? Also looking 4 black Derby Recs
Considering potentially buying the Grant Stone's "Plain Toe Crimson Chromexcel". I already own their Service Boot in the same color, so wondering if this is even worth investing in.

For background, I'm trying to close the loop on Americana/classic MFA styles and was wondering if this would be versatile in most outfits or if it's TOO GoodYearWelt and would stand out.
Additionally, I'm looking for black Derby Recommendations, I'm trying to find Derbies that are (1.) has wide width (EE or EEE preferably) (2.) all black, and (3.) durable and if possible good year welted. I'm looking at the Grant Stone Diesel in black as it's all black, but not sure if a black derby would be more versatile given temperature ranges.
Goal: The goal would be to find black shoes, derbies, or boots that would match streetwear, Americana, Korean/Japanese style. Not sure if anyone has had experiences.

Grant Stone
We developed a natural edge finish to accent the crimson upper, giving a casual feel. This is a "hot stuffed" leather that ages well due to the fat liquors and oils that are infused into the leather during the tanning process.
