Both are very civilian/grey man in appearance, and the gore tex waterproofing is essential, I won't wear any shoes that are not waterproof.

My EDC shoe needs to be tough enough for a long hike home in semi-urban terrain assuming vehicle travel is unavailable, so for EDC I favour walking shoes too (such as the Merrells) which are light and give me agility for both urban and non-urban terrain. I keep a pair in my car GHB so I can switch out of my Oxfords if I'm at work. However, I'm not a fan of Gore Tex for such shoes as I prefer breathability assuming I might have to walk for a long time. Merrell's Mobab Ventilator suits me for this.

Your situation may be different from mine though so a different shoe might be best. If I lived in Manchester I might go for a more waterproof shoe as there's more rain Smile
