Which of these shoes would be better for dressy casual style?

Question

I am having trouble deciding between these two pairs of dr martens. I have been trying to get a more mature, yet still young style and I am having trouble deciding between these two pairs. Which do you think I could pull of with a pair of Dockers and a casual button front shirt more easily? I am a grad. student in social work. Second, which has more all around ability? I am a grad student, so I can't afford to have both, even though I wish so. I want to look good, too. I want to look my age style wise, being a 24yr old man, so I am trying really hard, just needing others' opinions?

Answer 1

I like the first one.

It looks like a nice shoe. the other one looks like a shoe you might wear for walking in the woods. they both look like they will last a while, but I'd go for the first one.
