Proper leather shoes

For a chunky look? Solovair Gibsons? Or whatever the Sanders military Derbies are called?

(disclaimer - never tried Sanders formal shoes, but I like their chukkas)

Edit - I quite like those Trickers also

They usually end up in their seasonal sale for <£300 if I remember correctly. I’ve got two pairs on permanent rotation, first ones from their factory store and other on sale. They’ve got 8 and 12 years on the clock and been resoled once. Well worth their money.

Saw them for £350 shipped from JP earlier

You're an architect now, Shirley you can afford a pair, nephew!!
