These shoes are less formal than a dress shoe. They can be worn with business casual or smart casual outfits but these shoes do not go with formal environments like a funeral or something. They are a mixture of oxford and derby but constructed as to go above ankle length.
These shoes are a great alternative to dress shoes worn during fall and winter.
Boots can be worn with jeans, trousers, chinos, and provide warmth and cover full ankle length. They can also go with suits and are thus considered the best business casual shoes for men.
