I would look at Merrell's Lifestyle or perhaps Hiking/Boot range. The Freewheels and All Out Blazers are a nice compromise between styles I find. Very comfortable as well, I use them with prescribed moulded orthotics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have some of these , I live in them very comfortable

I really like these as well. 

 

https://www.amazon.com/Timberland-White-Ledge-Waterproof-Brown/dp/B000VX6Y42/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1468210192&sr=8-9&keywords=brown+mens+boots

 

 

 

Would they be appropriate?

 

 

 

 

I got a pair of these a couple of months ago from amazon.

 

I also wear levi's and have worn these boots to a 40th and out for dinner.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I really really like the look of them, more than anything else I have seen. Are they comfortable? Have you worn them for 8+ hours walking around in malls or whatever?

 

I did have a more general fashion question about wearing dark brown shoes, blue jeans (light or dark) and what colour shirts? Does shirt colour/Shoes cause issues?

 

I've typically really only owned black shoes and only typically wear very dark coloured shirts (I am ultra conservative) but as I get older I wonder if I should "branch out"

 

 

 

 

I can wear them all day, from walking the dog or doing the shopping to going out at night.

 

Dont ask me about fashion questions, the mrs said I looked ok when we went out for tea the other weekend (dark grey shirt, blue levi's & my timberland's)

I've got a couple of pairs of Casual Skechers. They are comfortable, and so far, last me well. I'm the same as you, wear jeans (501s) everyday to work, but don't want to wear trainers.

 

The skechers I have aren't on their site anymore. I got one pair at the Queen St store, on special for about $89, and liked them so much I bought another pair (different colour) from Amazon. According to my Amazon history they are called Skechers USA Men's Expected Avillo Relaxed-Fit Slip-On Loafer. $56US

 

 

Did you ship with youshop? How much did the shipping cost?

Most of the Skechers on Amazon are Global eligible, so no need to send to YouShop.

 

Last lot I got for my wife, 2 pairs, shoes cost $85.70, shipping $23 (NZD).

 

I have had some come through YouShop, and with the shoes (in a box, size 14) and a T-Shirt and Leather belt, shipping was about $40. If you can get a Youshop discount code, it works out OK.
