Denim Jeans: Abercrombie vs Levi's
Looking for views on the following jeans - black wash color.
https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/ca/p/90s-straight-jeans-48056349
99% cotton and 1% elastane
https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/ca/p/athletic-straight-jean-53787885
95% Cotton, 4% Polyester, 1% Elastane
I usually wear Levi's 541 (99% cotton/ 1% elastane) - the following model is not in stock https://www.levi.com/CA/en_CA/clothing/men/jeans/taper/541-athletic-taper-fit-mens-jeans/p/181810774
Questions:
(1) - Would 4% poly impact durability negatively. From limited reading that I've done - 100% cotton jeans are most durable.
(2) - Views on versatility/ utility of dark gray instead of black denim?
(3) - Any other brands I should consider (besides Uniqlo) - within ~CAD 100 price range?

3 Season (S/S/F) shoes that are acceptable in Business Casual situations
Looking for summer appropriate leather shoes that hold up well in mildly wet conditions.
Further considerations:
(1) In terms of formality - something a step above White Leather Sneakers - but not as dressy as Brown Derby Brogue Wingtips
(2) A good example is how I've been using Blundstones - work well in Spring/ Fall/ Winter - and are okay in snowy downtown conditions
(3) Should have good grip
Few options that I've come across are:
* LL Bean Blucher Mocs
* Paraboot Michaels (way over the amount I'd like to spend)
* Boat Shoes (not for Fall)
Thanks.
