I need a pair of black derby shoes for work.
I make almost no money but come from a rich family so you know I need something way over 'budget'
Who does a great derby shoe 250-1500?
I've always wanted to know what these were. they seem so much flatter/thinner and better looking than most shoes, is the guy wearing a size too big or osmething?

won't a flat sole with no heel make me look like a senior?

Allen Edmonds or something like that. I have no fucking clue why you'd drop more money than about $300-400 on a pair of dress shoes - you wear them on your feet and no amount of money is gonna make wear less of an inevitability.

i wondered if some of the higher end shoes wear better b/c of the leather quality

The leather is certainly better, but as with any other material, there are diminishing returns. In many circumstances, it's better to buy two pairs of $300 dress shoes and wear them half as much rather than to buy one pair of $600 and wear them for double the time.
