Cole haan cap toe oxfords 109$ at saks off fifth. Mangianni are pretty nice IMO. Not sure how much Allen Edmonds Park Avenue go for rn but those are worth looking at.

 

like $425 but you can often find ones with minor (usually unnoticeable) flaws for about 200 at stores that carry their regular products.

 

New Republic dress shoes for $100. I have a pair of their wingtips. Leather isn't great, but they are fine for kicking around daily wear.

 

For $150, you’re better buying a pair of Nikes and telling everyone you just had foot surgery on both feet.

 

Would actually not go too cheap on shoes. It's one of those penny wise, pound foolish decisions. I got a pair of Johnson Murphies six years ago for ~$250. Took good care of them and am wearing them right now. That's ~$40 per year for really good shoes.

Quality dress shoes can last a long time if you take care of them and the better shoes end up being much much cheaper in the long run.
