Used Dr. Marten original USA for more than 15 years. They used to have their own boutique at Centrepoint. Now no more, very good sturdy shoe.

Obermain, rockport etc all OEM made in china factory using cheap leather, glue, sometimes plastic.

 

Use a while, picha, throw away, buy new one within half a year.

 

Might as well invest in a pair of top-grade soft calf, lamb or crocodile leather, hand-stitched, hand-made in Italy. Last long time, uber comfy, won't paiseh when taking off shoes at people's house.

 

Go to the branded boutiques and try lah, you won't regret lah.

Prada and Church's

 

Long lasting, well-made, comfy, stylish.

 

Or can get Ferragamo, but without the signature buckle in front(too flashy for work)

 

If you pro-rate the cost of the shoes over its useful life, less than a pack of cigarettes a day.

 

i would go for bally. tried and feel sooooo good abt it... but the price made me turn away.... <_<

Don't ever believe for a minute that it is from germany despite them branding it that way. People in germany have never heard of it. There is a rumour that it is actually a singapore-owned brand with factories in asia.

Yah Bally is good also, swiss brand, but dunno made in switzerland or somewhere else in europe though. However origin is besides the point, what really matters is the leather quality, workmanship and style at this price point. If you are in your 30's, Bally is a little unstylo lah :D

 

I have seen some really really well-made leather shoes in China, made in china, top class leather and workmanship, but not cheap.... Price can rival italian brands. Really 一分钱一分货
