Need help picking style of new shoes/boots for business casual

Currently I do not have a good pair of shoes to wear with chinos. I’d like to find something that will work for either (A) business casual + formal (suit) or (B) business casual + casual (blue jeans). In other words, I want some versatility.

Me in current shoes with chinos (I wear these shoes with a suit but they are worn down and need replacing)

I have a lot of specific options picked out but need guidance on what style to select.

I’ve narrowed it down to:
Not interested in Chelsea boots - I don’t think I could pull them off.

What style would you all recommend for the scenarios above?

  • Budget: $200-$300 is preferred; $400 Max (I've found a lot that I like at Meermin and Allen Edmonds)
  • Location: California
  • Prefer shopping online
  • Timescale: need in ~4 weeks or less
  • Prefer to buy new
  • 5’11, 170lbs
I appreciate any guidance!
