Like most WASPs, I prefer loafers and slippers to lace-up shoes any day! However, one must still invest in a good pair of lace-ups, and featured above and below are my favorite pair, Ralph Lauren Oxford Bluchers. Sure, I own black and brown cap-toe oxfords, but honestly, I probably wasted my money purchasing them since I never wear them. I find the blucher to be less formal than the cap-toe, but I still find them dressy enought to wear with suits. They also pair well with khakis and gray flannels! So, if you are looking for a good pair of lace-ups, opt for the blucher.

That's good advice. I don't have a pair, yet.
Hellava lot better then those clunky chunky looking Mad men wing tips that are trending these days.
I don't see how people can wear them without socks...the leather heel is so stiff! Can you say...Blisters on the heel much!
Blucher is WAY cooler than Balmoural (what does cap-toe have to do with anything?)
Plain toe is plain.
These are unarguably shoes meant for men, which is a welcome change.
Very nice shoes, lovely patina.
