Which is better for everyday work wear?

The Stuart Weitzman Sully. Its smooth suede, round toe, and 1.8-inch block heel look dressier and pair with trousers or skirts. The Anistone's harness and bow read casual.

The Dr. Martens Anistone. Genuine leather with a rubber sole resists wet weather and scuffs better than suede. Suede needs spray protection and dry conditions to hold up.

Is the Dr. Martens worth the savings?

Yes, if you want a tougher boot. At $134.99 it is about $25 below the Sully's $159.78 low and adds buckle and zip closure. The Sully is worth the extra only if you need a dressier Chelsea.

Which is easier to put on?

The Sully. It is a pure pull-on with elastic side gussets and a pull tab. The Anistone also slips on but adds a zip and buckle, which take a moment longer.

Which fits wider feet better?

Both list medium width. The Anistone's buckle and zip let you loosen the shaft, which helps if you have a high instep. The Sully's elastic gussets stretch but offer no adjustment.

Which is better in rain or snow?

The Dr. Martens Anistone. Leather and rubber shed water, while the Sully's suede stains and needs protection before wet weather.
