Love 'em!
By the way, - in terms of purchases, while you're spending exorbitant bucks on a pair of really good shoes, also buy a pair of shoe trees. They're really quite cheap, and you only need one pair because you take them out of whatever shoes they've been sitting in and put them into the pair you're taking off. That way, as the natural body moistures dry out of the leather, the leather is already in a straighter position and will last longer with less creases to ruin the appearance of the shoes, and in the long run they more than pay for themselves so they're really free!

Here's a cap toe with four eyelets that is similar to the Grenson "Bert" (5 eyelets) I posted above.
