I'm in my mid-20's and am among those transitioning to a more adult style. I've always been a sneaker guy but am ready to make the dive into a "grown-up" shoe and think brown wingtip oxfords fit my style best (also, I don't think the wingtip boots work as well as oxfords for me personally) .
So, I was at DSW today and tried on the wingtips that I could find. There wasn't a large selection but I did seem to like the look/feel of these Kenneth Cole's:

They had a longer toe and I liked the material and the shade of brown. It's listed as cognac on the DSW site (Link) but I'm not sure about that.
Anywho, long story short, I didn't buy them but they at least gave me a starting point for my online search. I'd prefer not to spend Allen Edmonds-type money on these yet because I want to make sure this is a style I'm comfortable with for a year or so first. So, any suggestions for brands or specific shoes to look for online (or even on eBay)?
Help me, Dappered-won-keboni, you're my only hope.
