Comfortable and versatile working shoe

Hey guys, I'm looking for a pair of formal shoes for everyday work wear which can last more than a year.

Due to my posture and back issues, I 'd rather not wear shoes with heels, even if it means looking a little less formal.

My budget is $150-$200 and i was looking at this pair of Rockport shoes
http://www.rockport.com/Dressport-Wingtip-Mens-Shoes/drspwingtip,default,pd.html?dwvar_drspwingtip_color=drspwingtip_black&start=19&cgid=mens-footwear-technology-adiprene-by-adidas&dyncatsale=null&dyncatnew=null

or even considering this from the wizard of Oz
http://thewizardshoes.com/details.php?id=840&cat_id=1&sub_id=38

should i purchase 1 $200 pair that could take me from an office workplace to the night club (matched with grey or black pants) or should i purchase 2 pairs for each occasions instead and save up for an upgrade later?




Thanks in advance : )

Cheers
Ryan

Hi guys selling shoe trees for your expensive shoes.

These are the full wood shoe trees. It cost more than S$50 brand new in mistermint, etc but i am selling for only $30 each. The trees can fit a range of US9.5 - US11 as it has some sort of spring mechanism.

Shoe trees are inserted into shoes to help maintain the original shoe shape, help prevent creases and cracking, and absorb moisture from the lining of the shoes.

I have 2 pairs of trees. Buy both and get some discount.
Please PM or email me at pronxs@yahoo.com

exactly like below picture but silver knob instead of golden.

Think it's the in house label by Tangs. Clothes sizes look a bit tight and tailored for slim sized asians. Shoe leather quality looks very plastic. More style than substance to me.

You can get it from NTUC, or you want better brand, can go to pedro or ecco shop.

Their pants quality and fabric looks and feel good but I nv buy, friend said its quite good. Shoe wise, their design quite fashionable, like pedro, dont expect quality shoe quality thou.

If you like the design, just buy, like in pedro.

In house brand by tangs as mentioned.

Shoes look sharp n slick.. But not cheap. Think there is some sales now. Can take a look.

Tangs have pretty nice range of work shoes if u have deep pocket. Lol

Won't recommend Pedro, despite their nice designs and lower price tag. Quality IMO don't really last.

For shoes price below $200, I prefer Aldo, Zara.
