I think you could pull off brown. It's not a very dark grey.

not to sound like a dick, but that's cause it's Neimans. They are a little more conservative in what they bring in and it's a little easier to sell a two button base a than a three button.

Thanks for all the input everyone. Still haven't made up my mind, but appreciate the advice.

I suppose its up to your own personal opinion, but I think a dark chocolate brown calfskin would look fantastic with that shade of grey. But true, you can't go wrong with grey and black

They are the Walkton as per someone's very nice MTO. Search "walkton" in the G&G appreciation thread for details. I'd share them, but I can't quite recall what they are at the moment.

So I picked up this TF suit on the B&S (thanks to Mr. Sam). Now, against my better judgment, I'm considering picking up a pair of G&G's to wear with it (and my other clothes, obviously). I'm just not sure what colours would work. I think I've narrowed it down a bit though:
in midnight blue:
200
In vintage rioja:
229
or something like:
245
I already have a pair of black AE 5th avenues and a lower-end brown plain toe oxford I got for free with another purchase, so I'm looking for something a little different.
Thoughts?


AE Westchesters, and btw, that suit is from the mid 90's

Agreed. I think it's a better option than the ones you showed in the first post of this thread.

The funny part is, it's the shoe I was originally going to go with, but second guessed myself because I looked at my shoe collection and thought I already had too many captoe oxfords.
