Close, but no cigar

The best gunboats are Florsheim Imperials, AE Macniels, and Alden. Only Alden still makes the same model. Modern brands are giving their takes. These don't hold a candle to vintage AE or vintage Florsheim. But they have the aesthetic and are approachable in price (vs Alden). If you're not gonna pony up for Alden, or search for vintage, these are fine. If you can get blkbrd to make a pair in your size, they're probably just as good. Carmina's on the Detroit last looks good. So, do I recommend them? Yeah, ish.

Q&A

Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Stock Model
Style

In the men's footwear scene there has been a massive hole for the past 30ish years left by the Florsheim Imperial gunboats. These shoes had promise to fill that hole

How did you determine your size?

This was my first go at a pair of GS. Sizing was based on availability of a good deal tbh
