Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy - Page 146

Hi there - been lurking in SF since August but decided to finally share some of the stuff I've gotten, thanks to the very informative and helpful posts of members like those who post in this thread.  I went from a couple of forgettable pairs from DSW to three pairs of EGs and several others from G&G, Corthay, etc.  All part of a small change in lifestyle precipitated by what my wife calls a small midlife crisis!  But hey, I'm very happy with my new shoe collection (and, it appears, so is she).  

Here's one of my EGs - Harrogate, obtained from Leffot in NYC.

Picture taken back in Fall 2012!  

Thanks again for all you folks have shared.  I am most appreciative.

Thanks very much.  I think my wife properly classified it as a small midlife crisis when I went from a couple of forgettable Movado watches to three Pateks and one Rolex.  That's quite a jump too.  My bank account duly jumped as well.  Downwards, of course.

She got two Rolexes in the process though, so she's a happy camper. Haha!

But seriously, I love EGs.  IMHO the RTWs are more comfortable than G&G and Corthay.  I have to give props to G&G and Corthay for what I feel are sleeker designs, but at the end of a long work day my feet are very appreciative that I'm wearing EGs that day.

Hah - that's good policy.  My wife and I have been married for over a decade, and we have two kids.  She's always been very supportive - she loved and married me when I didn't care about what I wore and she loves the somewhat snazzier looking me today.  I think I've got a keeper.
