What’s your budget?
Maybe $100
That’s really tough, I don’t think you could get anything brand new at that price point. If you’re willing to go used your options get better
Yeah I'd be buying from ebay or poshmark or something
Paraboot would be my choice
If you’re open to loafers there’s a lot more options as well
I was going for all black but these look tough 😮💨
$500 🥲
ebay 👍 grailed 👍 aggregators like modesens 👍 depop/postmark less so but ykwim buy secondhand
Yup looking in all those places
ll bean kennebec/casco bay and gh bass hampton also come to mind
Sebago
used quoddy/rancourt/yuketen
I'm also looking at moccasins 🤔
Someone want to tell me if they can tell if something is real leather?

A lot of sperry shoes do use real leather btw, except the ones that are obviously made from canvas or something
I think ll bean camp Mocs fit the bill. I had to get inserts for them and the heels have really worn down in a year, but those are probably issues with my feet.
Recently noticed people talking about inserts but I'm clueless, I wonder if its something that catches up with you
Bit of both. I’ve needed supports the whole time, but was cavalier about them when I was 22. But the LL Bean mocs are especially hard on my arches, without some basic arch supports.
