Are Allen Edmonds Verona Italian loafers too flashy to wear as an analyst?

Are black Allen Edmonds Verona Italian loafers too flashy to wear as a 2nd year Sales & Trading analyst for office wear? (my team is is very laid back and doesn't wear anything fancy like watches) What about to client meetings?

I personally think theyre fine because Gamos and Gucci are the flashier sleds. Verona's are just nice bit loafers (I wear them). However, I'm sure someone will disagree with me. People in your office who would notice or care will probably respect the decision due to the shoes' quality, rather than question it as some form of fashion statement.

Dayman?
