Mike, are you this stupid in real life or do you just play this role on the Internet? First you argue about horse/cordovan and now this. Yes, I know that a lot of designer clothing on the SWD side has nice detailing/etc. but the construction is not the best (as opposed to most things on the MC side). But I didn't expect that MMM boots retailing close to/north of $1k have glued soles... that's Kenneth Cole/Cole Haan territory.

Cropped to avoid derpy face. After 3 re-takes, I'm done trying.

Moo, the shoes are h&m margiela collab. Made in Portugal, glued sole. Nothing fancy but I wanted a pair to try a non-tuck once in a while smile.gif

Yours will too, in time. The little rubber part just isn't attached well. Easy fix tho

And moo, no one is actually paying $300 for these fyi

snows fit is awesome! Wish you would have posted more angles. I feel fits like this should be acknowledged more for the thoughtful combination of different pieces - including the bespoke document holder- as opposed to for example Regis margiela-only fit which was thumbed into heaven.

I don t really understand the critic for shahs pants. They are supposed to fit like that ?
Different shoes and shirt, yes, but the pants are fine.

The discrepancy between cost and actual "quality" talking point is covered seemingly every time MMM side-zips are discussed. I'm not sure anyone, even those who own at least one pair, have ever contested that the MSRP is pretty obscene for what you get in terms of construction.

Yup. Most people also understand that they're a massive ripoff.

Also, as you already know, JLP, EG, and pretty much all English shoes are technically glued as well. Alot of them retail north of $1K.

Real simple, so you can't go wrong... But how are you going to wear all those basic brands, then throw some Lanvin on the feet? Your sneakers cost more than the entire outfit.
