Bury me in my blundstones
Shame when boots and shoes do that. I have had old work boots do that in the last year. As for a BIFL Chelsea, I've moved on to a Canada West Romeos, it has a Goodyear Welt and the leather appears to be of good quality. Not significantly more expensive than blundstones for a shoe that can be theoretically rebuilt.

Nice looking men's boots that will work in an office, but stand up to Chicago winters
Agreed, but with the caveat that they're the minimal acceptable shoe for both scenarios. I used a pair of their "Dress" boots (basically the 1306 but with crazy horse leather) for that exact purpose for many years and definitely had some slip and falls. Maybe the Classic or All Terrain (Vibram) would do better. Obviously not actually BIFL, but mine lasted for the better part of a decade as my primary winter boot before I wore through the bottom. I've never tried them, but if I was in that same situation again, I might try the Canada West Romeos with Vibram 430 mini lug soles. They seem to be both dressier in design and have more grip.

Ladies, what are the MOST comfortable boots you’ve worn for walking 10k+ steps a day?
I like my Canada West Brand Romeo boots. Good year welted so you can replace the soles
