My first thought was that it’s exactly the model that Engineered Garments and the Bureau Belfast used in their collaborations with Trickers. But it seems like they opted for a similar model with additional split toe. How do you find the difference between regular toe and split toe on this “lake” silhouette?
I like how the silhouette fits right in-between formal and casual. Perfect for messing the dirt while still looking classy haha
I’ve found that split toes are either constructed or at least perceived to be slimmer in the toe. To me, the apron-front construction especially one derived from the golf silhouette tends to have a bit more visual weight, I think that’s also aided by the big rubber soles, and the raised lake stitching. I see the split toe as a touch more formal, the apron front seems more modern.
Coincidentally Paraboot Chambord in black have become my go to footwear since the middle of last year. They are surprisingly versatile and have the same level of comfort as „classic“ deck or terrace sneakers
