Good to know that I'm not totally out in left-field with my laced on buckle idea

Burnett's and Struth says:

"Pick up a pair of shoe buckles and add a traditional flair to your footwear. These buckles are made out of pewter and are attached to leather flaps. Features two eyelets to fasten the buckles to your Ghillie Brogues or formal footwear."

I used buckles like these to replace the standard chrome buckles that come with buckle brogues. I simply cut the buckles out of the leather 'tongues' and affixed them to the snap closure on the buckle brogues...took a wee bit of time to get it right, but it worked well!
