I'm with the 'dozer
there's nothing bent about brogues, or at least they are well down the bent scale. Cuban heels? bent. slip-ons? massively bent. Cowboy boots? Brokeback anus. I could go on.

precisely.
These have a perforated toecap, five eyelets and are a tasteful brown, with a continuation of the perforation detail round the instep and heel.

Very far from bent.

unsuitable for officewear though.

Depends on the office really.
I've worked in offices in army boots for the last 10 or more years.

says it all for the level of your taste and standards.
You would wear army boots with a suit?

I probably have done, but not as a general rule
Luckily I haven't been required to wear a suit to work since I was a till monkey.

I have never been required to wear a suit.
But chicks dig guys in nicely accessorised suits.

And I accessorise extremely well.

I think he's got one of those shit office jobs where they get all uptight about dress code.

nope.
It just states 'smart casual'. But I have high sartorial standards.

Unlike you.

Just different Dozer

My last job had a strict dress code
and I still got away with Cat boots.

Hahahha
There's nothing bent about brogues at all - or there wasn't, until Bumdozer here bought some.

*throws brogues away*
