Shoebag!! Unstructured vs Structured Toes? Who Makes the Best Rugged Derby? And More!

The Stitchdown Shoecast

The Shoebag is back! All hail the Shoebag.
This time, @tichoblancoshoes and Ben from @stitchdown answer all sorts of reader questions, including: Unstructured vs structured toes? Half soles vs. full soles? What makes a perfect engineer boot? What are the metaphysical differences between oxfords and derbies? (There are plenty.) How do you figure out what new brand to make a move on next as you continue on your shoe journey? Are shell engineer boots essential or insane?
Also for some reason we end up talking about freeze-dried gummi worms a lot. Lots of reasons, I guess.
