In the absence of a higher resolution photo I cannot say for sure (and I certainly stand to be corrected), but it looks like only the gent on the left has buckles. I don't see any on the other gent's shoes.

And as an aside, how can buckled ghillie brogues be acceptable for formal attire, but non-buckled ones then be completely dismissed for daywear? Just out of curiosity.
