I don't like cap toes for myself because they remind me too much of steel-toe or paratrooper boots. I'm not partial to smooth-tops either as they are just too plain for me. I'm also not a big fan of the current trend of what I call "duckbills"... those flat, square toed, seam topped ones. For dress or informal shoes (not my boots or Nikes) this is what I wear:

L-R, Florsheim cordovans, unk. mnfg black leather, synthetic leather for outdoors, and the only "smooth-top" I wear now, Sketcher buckles (generally for winter).
