I have these eccos I wear during the summer. They're a tad expensive but they were on sale for $120 at some point. Eccos are really comfortable and last a long time. I also have a pair of ariat boots I wear in the winter.

As for professionalism, I've seen some pretty gross looking pilots out there to the extent that shoes seem to be the least of our worries.... Is it possible that having an inconspicuous dark leather running shoe exuding health and fitness might be more professional looking than an overweight pilot donning fancy dress shoes? (not directed towards anyone in particular, but we've all seen this).
Also, its not like we are going to a board meeting or appearing in front of a judge. We have a hands (feet) on job.

They are undoubtedly nice looking shoes. I'm just not much of a boot guy. I'm looking for something that has a softer sole like a sneaker but that also has the look of a dress shoe. Perhaps this doesn't exist.

Bostonian Mendon - Zappos.com Free Shipping BOTH Ways
Around $70-$75 at DSW but then remember you get coupons if you sign up. Normally $10 or 15% but I've gotten $20 off $49 coupons before. I've also picked up those same shoes at discounters for under $40.
They tend to wear faster than a normal shoe because the sole is a light rubber material, but extremely comfortable. They slip on and off and they are very light. No metal shank so you can walk right through metal detectors without issue.
A little shoe polish and they buff up nicely as well.
I got a free pair of Cole Haans and tried to wear them for several trips, no thank you. You can keep your $150 uncomfortable shoes!

Arias looks nice, not sure it would be dressy enough for the uniform?
Blundstones are butt-ugly, IMHO.
