^ what he said. looks a size if not 2, too big

 

[NinjaBoiX]

I'm not going to be as harsh as "you look homeless" but it's a dull old man jacket and it's way too big.

No, just no.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Don't keep it.

ASOS need to fuck off with their frequent deals I can barely afford to pay rent at this rate.

Can someone find me a pair of dress boots that look just like this one? It must be wing tipped, and it must be a Brown variation.

This one is close to $400, so yeaaaa

Look around at your local JC Penney's for their Stafford Deacon boots.

First time I've bought sneakers in years.

What are your guys' thoughts on Chelsea Boots? Thinking about picking up a pair. Looking for some in Burgundy.

I was just browsing around for some boots of my own this evening and happened to see something similar on the Stacy Adams website. Sorry, I couldn't hyperlink to it because it kept redirecting for some reason.

I had a pair of Wright army boots from Asos a couple years ago. They were fine, pretty lightweight and comfortable, obviously not upper-tier (or even mid, tbh) quality but serviceable. Mine were clearance priced; I wouldn't pay full price under any circumstances.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Uhh..... I'm just gonna leave this here:

(from the CdG Spring '15 collection for context)

 

[freenudemacusers]

I really hope they produce those shoes. It's gonna be amazing.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I saw this on the BR site. I want it. It's perfect.

But $300, ehhhhhhhhh, can't do it right now.

Chelsea boots can be the only type of shoes that you need: be at the office or with a jeans, it's never out of place.
I've been pushing back buying Oxford shoes because nobody bat an eye on my Chelsea

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

I'm willing to take a leap into the unknown, bros.

Do it man!
I wear these pretty much daily now:

Which are Clarks so they were only around £80.
I'm 6' 4" and wear them with slim jeans which I cuff, looks great.

Reactions from other have been... pretty mixed though ha

Dude i was just looking at that too?

Where you from? It shows $260 for me and because its BF week i got a code for 50% off a single item making it $130


Also the site has a code for 40% off your rntire order

I'm in Canada and it's showing $325. But hey, if I can get it for $130, I will!

Right now the code is showing 30% off my order and no other 50% code or anything :/

I can order it and ship it from the American site if I can get such a wicked deal!

I spy some Paul Smith shoes

Chelsea boots are excellent. Go for it.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

I've always thought about getting some SLP chelsea boots.

 

[MistakenMobius]

Nope
I guess that the purple lace might induce in error.
The Oxford are from Loding a French shoe company.

 

[MistakenMobius]

I've always thought about getting some SLP chelsea boots.

I'm notre sure that the wisest spending that one can make:
SLP is a fashion house not a shoemaker and the premium for the brand is really high.
What about a nice pair of JM Weston or John Lobb?

 

[MegalonJJ]

Nope

Lol

How are Loding by the way? I considered getting a pair a while back.

Don't think! Feel! It is like a big toe pointing to the moon. And don't concentrate on the toe shape or you will miss all the heavenly glory.

Probably the best bang for your buck in the entre level nice shoes that exist.
All model are 160€, more than their competition Bexley but IMHO the quality bump is clearly worth it.
There are a few Spanish companies in the same brackets and some Loake lines that are also competing.
The only downside is that the pointyness has increased to follow the market. I like very British roundd toes.

 

[Oxn]

Guys help me decide.....

This

or

Also do you like this?

 

[Horse Detective]

I like option no. 2.

 

[freenudemacusers]

def. #2


have a couple of samples of the reissued helmut lang cuiron here (schmooze barney's sa's brehs). maybe i've forgotten what it smelled like (it's been a solid decade), but i don't remember it being quite so transparent and light. maybe i just doused myself in it back in the day, I dunno. maybe it's just not my bag anymore.

 

[Oxn]

I like option no. 2.

def. #2

hmmmmm..... i was actually leaning towards #1

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

hmmmmm..... i was actually leaning towards #1

Then get #1

Interesting. Cheers for the info, I'll have to give Loding a look! Do they fit true to size in your experience?

 

[thezerofire]

I like #2 better, fake distressing isn't really my thing

 

[giga]

I prefer the monks out of those, but I would skip that model and get one without the medallion cap toe. It's too much.

 

[Taco_Human]

What's your opinion on J Crew pants? Jeans? Got a pair of chinos and jeans from there today. Kinda expensive but they fit great.

 

[Oxn]

I like #2 also, but I dont like the Sole.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

#2, but #1 aren't bad.

#3 look like orthopedic shoes for a child, they're hideous.

Cole Haan Air Giraldo Wingtip...GAF recommended?

 

[y2dvd]

Those are some baller ass shoes. I need to pick up some like the ones posted.

 

[CatPee]

Cole Haan Air Giraldo Wingtip...GAF recommended?

It's Cole Haan, so buy on sale rather than the $245 MSRP.

As for the shoe's aesthetics, I'm not such a fan of wingtips on a blucher shoe. The wingtips look ridiculously long along with a funky-looking toebox too. If you're not iffy on buying used/off of eBay, you can grab some well-cared for Allen Edmonds McAllisters or Strands for around the same price.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Guys help me decide.....

This

Option 2 would be the best if the sole wasn't ugly as fuck.
