I think it looks like a narrow LO because he is bending forwards to take the picture and the pants are stretched across his forefoot as a result. I love the shell, and I think the bloom will lessen after some wear?

Gentlemen, I just left The Shoe Mart, where they were unpacking their first pairs of Carminas. I picked up a pair of black austerity brogues on the Simpson last. Here are some iPhone pics of what they have available.

Boots and shoes are the same price. That's probably going to change soon with an increase in boot prices. Just my guess

Shoemart's stock photos are so awful.


Pics look awful? the models they stocked are awful. There are maybe three attractive models. An Austerity, brogued cap, and a plain toe. And again with the sizing. ShoeMart stocks EVERY size from every maker, but they seem to have the same inventory as the e-store This is great news though. If any retailer has the funds to float a full inventory, it is ShoeMart and hopefully, this is just a taste of what they bring in. They are likely doing so on a trial contract. Unfortunately, Not a kown brand stateside, so hope they have patience with it.

My Carminas squeak so, so badly. As if if I'm walking with wet soaking wet shoes
