I need some advice. I need some cooler shoes for work this summer and I can't find anything I like. I work in a hospital and interact with patients, MDs, nurses, and administrators. It's a pretty business casual environment. My go to footwear are Red Wing Iron Rangers in harness leather but I'm finding them just too warm now.
I want something with laces - no driving moc style or penny loafers. I'm not wild on the ubiquitous sperrys. I've have had Clark desert boots and hated them. (You see how I'm running out of good options here...)
Typical attire for me is khakis and a buttoned shirt, usually with sleeves rolled up to my elbow this time of year. 95% of the time I'm gonna be wearing brown shoes and belt. I'm 31 and don't want "old man" shoes yet but also I have about 20 employees I supervise (most of which are older than me) so I need to look mature and reponsible too.
U.S. made is a plus but not absolute deal-breaker.
Thanks!
