I used to use a 180 Amazon trick to cop solid shoes very cheaply. Probably spent more time on it than it was worth, but I got lots of nice shoes very cheaply.

Once a week or so, I would go on Amazon and search for certain brands I liked in my size. Once every few months or so, I'd find a shoe I liked in my size that was absurdly cheap. (Eg. a solid Allen Edmonds loafer with a leather sole for $33 bucks).

Years ago, there were tons of companies using Amazon's search feature in this manner (but automated) to help people find deals, so Amazon fucked with their search to make this strategy not work as well.

Doesnt work any more.

So, to answer your question, a pair of like $400 boots I copped for like $100 bucks.

ostrich luchesse's, $500ish.

also have a pair of amazonian lizard luchesse's from the original san antonio factory. i got them on craigslist for $300 in like new condition, but no telling what they're "worth". the skin is illegal now. a comparable new pair would be like $1500.

Never underestimate the power of a good suit and shoes in intimidating people.

I got elevated. Now wear Peter Millar etc to work most days. Suits still come out a few times a year.

I bought a pair of Allen Edmonds when i started big law because the board seemed like it was the thing you had to do.

Then I realized they suck (normal people wear rubber soles for a reason) and no one cares.

I have a pair of John Lobb shoes that I paid $1,250 for probably 5+ years ago. They are 180 and I'll probably end up owning them for 20 years. I just googled and those apparently are up to $1,780 per pair now LOL.

At the $1,000 level I have Ferregamo tuxedo shoes and dress loafers. (I think the tux shoes were $950 and the dress shoes were $800 or so.) I bought both of these a few years ago before Ferregamo went all fruity. I have a black tie event at least every month so it was worth it to get tux shoes I can actually walk in. (I don't normally condone spending a lot on patent leather tuxedo shoes.)

To be honest, though, the most "expensive" shoes I buy are Tod's gommini loafers. They are $545 MRSP, though I won't buy them unless they are $400 or less through department store sales, markdowns, etc. But the motherfuckers wear out in like two months. They are really comfortable and I love the way they look, but christ they are built like a sheepskin condom.

Alden plain-toes for my tux. Worn 5x. Bought 15 years ago but apparently they’re ~$900 now.

Tricker’s — I think the Country Shoe? — also bought 15 years ago. They’re $745 now. They are very nice but super stiff.

I wear sneakers to work 99% of the time now. Back when I wore suits I wore standard $300-400 Allens Edmond.

Alden cordovan penny loafers. Got on sale at about $500, they go for $1000 today.

Otherwise just a bunch of pairs of AEs from when I was in biglaw bought at between $200-$300. They kina suck. Literally have had the black park avenues since 2012 and they still don't really feel broken in whenever i wear them.

some c&j handgrade monkstraps ($900 or so retail, i got them for about $300) and some rl (also by c&j) shell cordovan wingtips (they used to retail for $900 or so, but they don't sell them anymore - got them on sale for about $400). this was about 10-15 years ago when i was going through a big styleforum menswear phase.

i have multiple $300-400 shoes/boots/loafers/sneakers that i acquired on sale over the years, but mostly just wear adidas or nb sneakers to work these days.
