Wingtip is fine in office except for the most formal occasions doesnt matter suit or shirt / pants. Any shoe with perforation or medallion is less formal than a cap toe.

So it is compulsary to wear black pants in office? Kinda boring to have all shoes in black... Try push your luck lighten the shade to dark charcoal and dark brown shoes.

thanks..yeah I already got a pair of dark brown shoes. I generally prefer to wear black pants cause grey doesnt look good on my thighs:(..big thighs

You guys saw Ed Et Al's latest shoes? They look pretty good, and apparently they're on a modified, sleeker last. Same price.

Haven't seen the actual shoes yet though.

Meermin is in UK sizes. For your size I would think it is either 7.5 or 8.
I have a pair of Meermin 7.5 in Hiro lasts, but I don't know how it compares with the 2 lasts you are eyeing.

For me:

UK 8.5 Meermin Double Monks (Hiro Last) - EU 42 Edetal Shenton II - US 9 AE Neumoks (5 Last)

Hope that helps!

I got Meermin Double Monks too and I am very tempted to get AE Neumoks especially during e Amazon sale recently. But 9D is not too tight for you, I was expecting a 9.5D to be of a better fit.
Myself on Meermin 7.5, I wanted to get Neumoks in 9D as I read that some people saying its smaller than the usual AE

The neumok is pretty long from what i heard, so i ordered 9.
Actually the neumok does not fit like perfectly as the laces still have a slight v shape to them, but at least is a V shape rather the like parallel.
Hopefully can stretch abit to cover.
Not sure if 9 E might fit better as the front part of my feet at its widest still has quite some space.

Will compare physically the neumoks and meermin when i get home.

How much are a pair of Loake's in Singapore? I see them on their website from Pound 150 to 200.

Thanks.
