I don't think there's anything wrong with distinctiveness in one's footwear, but I'm not sure it works if it distracts the viewer from the rest of the outfit.


I heear you bruh , just a little simplicity on top would ake this outfit worthwhile even though the red really stands out.
Imagine if someone tried to over do it with a lot of clashing colors on top.

Doin fine I have no idea why its doing that its suppose to let you register smoothly like everyone has. If anything subscribe to the little link thing after any one of the post, or click on register on the tab if either one is the problem just do the other because there is two ways to register.

I wear my sand suede with just about anything, any color. They're basic. I also don't belive in overthinking this. It's khaki. What's there to think about?

I just bought a pair of DBs in a size 10, since the 10.5s seemed loose at the store. I wore them around the apartment a bit and just walked down the street to the ATM and I think they might be a bit small. I normally wear an 11 in Chucks, but a 10.5 on everything else seems to be perfect, if not, as is the case with my Johnston and Murphy boots, a bit big. Will they stretch out a bit, especially at the front? There is still some movement in the heel area.

I'm plannig on getting some beeswax Clarks, those look amazing. I know it's been asked before but what do you people usually wear on the top with them? I mean colour wise, since I've some sand coloured ones and I've been told that they don't look so good with darker shirts and sweaters (dark blue for example). Are there any pics of people actually wearing the beeswax ones?
Also I've a question regarding sizing, since I live far away I will try to get them on ebay, and I don't owm many american shoes... only some Jack Purcells that are 11 (US). What size Clarks should I get? Thanks
