Favorite men’s dress shoe for road warriors? Have had my cole haan zerogrands for 2 years but I still just think the British tan is so ugly. Looked at Allen Edmonds but found the walnut too light and the brown too bland. Comfort matters but definitely looking for something sleeker than the cole haans

You need to go to European makers for the sleeker lasts.

In rough order of $ to $$$:
Meermin, Carmina, Carlos Santos, Crockett & Jones, Stefano Bemer, Saint Crispin's, Edward Green

If your dress leans casual get derbies or loafers in dark brown, if you wear suits get oxfords in black

Allen Edmonds makes the best looking ones. Everything else is ugly after you’ve had a pair. Comfort wise though I’m sure there’s a brand out there that could be a little better.

Hi fishes,
I just browsed through this bowl and it seems I've replied to the HR's mail with an expected CTC way lower than the market trend.
YOE - 9.1
Stack - IT/Network
Current - 7.5LPA
Expected - 18LPA (mentioned this in my reply to their mail along with all the docs).
Should I've asked for more? Or will my current CTC hold me back? Should I drop another mail?
Which designation should I go for? I can see guys getting AVP at this xp but I'm looking for B3 for ease of getting the next promotion.

Would only know about things that come through his emails, and would only care where things are at when we are reporting to the partner.
