Honestly I haven't found anything that beats them for value. I've had 2 pairs (scout and captain) for about 4 years.

Both have held up excellently. I wear the scouts 2x per week to the office. The left shoe has developed a slight squeak but otherwise is fine.

I wear the captains a lot in the fall and winter. They are the natural color and still look great. I get lots of compliments on these. However, the left boot sometimes gives me aches in the arch of my foot. It's random. It may be fixable with a thin insole.

I love my Thursdays stuff, but their quality changes batch to batch. I have some shoes from them with leather midsoles which are awesome, but I also have other pairs that shipped with fiberboard midsoles and lasted 5 months. I reached out and basically they said they build shoes in batches based off of what they can source and what their design is at that time so quality can really vary.

Yeah I don't think they are quite as good as my Allen Edmond McAlisters, which i also wear to work, but the AEs are also $200 more than my Thursday scouts.

The Thursdays scouts have been amazing for $150 though. I would totally buy them again and risk a weird batch.
