Such a cool & thoughtful gift idea, OP!

I have a pair of Grenson boots. Resoleable, absolutely gorgeous, and good fit. Not inexpensive at all, but if the the leather holds up, the re-soleable bottom means I can keep them going for a long long time.

I like the “Fred” G2 fit. Just a tiny bit over your current budget. Sometimes these pop up on sale on their website.

Thank you! Yeah it took a lot of thought to come to something meaningful that he will actually use and when I think of "things every man should own" I think: pocket knife, watch, suit, and good pair of boots/shoes that will look good on any occasion

Getting him a suit for our wedding felt, weird, he won't wear a watch and he already owns a very expensive buck

So shoes it is!

I'll definitely look into Grenson! Thank you! The bit I've seen already looks great!
