I need some input from all the pedi-philes lurking about on SL. I have about $1,000.00 to spend, and I'm leaning toward some new shoes. I already have too many, but I also have far too many shirts, sportcoats and suits. What to buy!
I am an attorney, and I seem to be wearing suits less and less often. Still, when I look at high end shoes, I kind of choke choke at the thought of paying $500 or more for a loafer, derby or blucher.
On the dress shoe (balmoral) side, I have two pair of black (Edward Green and Tramezza), and several in brown (C&J Weymouth, and assorted Allen Edmunds). I also have a pair of AE wingtips in merlot.
On the more casual side, I have several pairs of AE loafers, a nice pair of pebble grain Ferragamos, and a couple driving mocs (rarely worn). I also have several pairs of AE bluchers.
I would really like to get a couple more handgrades, and am leaning toward the Audley, the Whitehall (I'd be interested in hearing more about this rounded last), the Clifford and the Belgrave. The problem is, because I don't wear suits very often (probably less than five times a month), I wouldn't get to show these off as much (unless you guys would wear these with wool trousers, shirts without ties and sportcoats).
Most of my suit wardrobe consists of grey shades, with a couple each in blue and brown.
For everyday wear, I have a couple dozen wool trousers covering most of the spectrum. In the summer I wear some cotton and linen trousers as well.
I am a lover of fine shoes but no aficionado, at least not by SF standards. Your thoughts would be most appreciated.
