That puts these at under $65:

I don't own any Bonobos, but people who do seem to like them.
Jomers has some really nice wool pants for $64. You usually have to jump on them when they release because they sell out quick, but there are still a ton of options and lots of sizes. The only con is that you will have to have them tailored since they all come in the same length.

They also have a tint bit of stretch added in for extra comfort.

Also, don't overlook Nordstrom Rack. They have a number of shoes in that price range that look similar, including some Allen Edmonds for $160:

And Allen Edmonds has a great sale on the Whitney cap toe model right now, if you like that--only $127, marked down from $425!
https://www.allenedmonds.com/outlet/...lucher%2FDerby
They have some other models on sale right now in that price range as well.
And don't forget they have 15% off your first purchase if you sign up for the mailing list.

New Job - Upgrading Wardrobe
I have been away from Dappered for a while...but I got a new job as an assistant principal and I am looking to make a few upgrades to my wardrobe, shifting to a bit more of a shirt and tie look. I have been searching for years for a plain black pair of shoes. I checked these out at Nordstrom today but felt the toe may be a bit too "boxy." I am digging the boots that were on the front page today. Also interested in these for something slightly more casual.
I am really struggling with pants. I have always worn the Jcrew Broken in Chinos, but that won't be quite dressy enough. I snagged a pair of the Ludlow 4 season wool pants on super sale today, I am interested in a few more pairs of wool pants or a dressier option than the chinos I used to wear. I picked up a 3/99 deal from Charles Tyrwhitt, going to make sure sizing is right before ordering any more from them.
TLDR...New job = new wardrobe, need black shoes/casualish brown shoes, dress pants...
