Both Rokit and Beyond Retro can throw up occasional gems. To be worn again down here can be good sometimes too.
More 'split-toe' to add to the mix,
good quality for the price point (and a second pair from the range for €89)...

A little more expensive €180ish if you can find 'em (and very Paraboot-esque)...

^ I'm just back from Russia with some Army Surplus in my flightcase, so I'm ready to go (but we'll need to stop for a quick pint first).
We can have a go at the Mephisto chaps as well for their "Para" knock-offs as well !!!!!
I've got a pair of Alden split-toe tanker boots in burgundy cordovan, toes more rounded than pointed, all-weather combination crepe/leather soles, circa 2005-06 .....
really like them a lot, very comfortable, good for three seasons .... they answer my split-toe needs ......
I wear them casually with jeans mostly, dressing them down severely .....
Santoni's most excellent Shooey..
Split toe fans achtung!
A dreamy dozen bisected forefoots for your delectation on the Sartorial Notes blog.

I am haunted by the grain leather Paraboot Avignons that The Weejun posted on Instagram.
I find it impossible to get past the brand tag on Paraboot. Those Avignons do look outstanding shoes for standing or walking in.

Yes, I'd be very tempted to get to work on that tag with my scalpel.
A good varied selection though. Something for everyone. Good spot Woof.
The Carminas on the Satorial Notes site look better in the flesh than in that picture.
A custom made pair by them come in at about £375 in Horween shell cordo, but really helps if you speak Spanish when ordering.
