I want a pair of gray brogues very badly. Not badly enough to sell a liver, which is what I'd have to do to afford those, but still, pretty badly.

Those shoes were in GQ a couple months ago, definitely hot. I've been looking for some smoky gray kicks like that but can't find any within my broke college student price range. Oh well.

I'm not a huge fan of those but they'd be great with the right wardrobe, but i do want a pair of grey shoes/boots desperately. More of a darker grey like a charcoal or smoke color. Some of the only ones i've found whose style i like are ann d, cdiem and ro though. That **** ain't gonna fly.

The boot, in particular, is actually pretty nice... now I'm seriously considering it. What's the color like IRL?

I have had a pair of the Madison boots in brown or black or both for about 20 years....I replaced them only when I lost them.

They wear well and are comfortable, but the color always looks kinda painted on. Still, I think I'm going to put my current pair, the brown, back into rotation.
