You are never too young for tassels. I bought my first pair when I was 25. They are definitely more mature than pennies, but there are always occasions for a little bit extra maturaity.

Just received a pair of J Crew tan LWBs that I snagged for $300 new. I already have an identical pair, but I can't resist a good deal. Finding a diamond in the rough is now more satisfying than buying at full retail, which has almost lost me anyway given where prices are at and the number of pairs I have.

Stunning! I'm surprised the whiskey cordovan is so dark in color.

This is why some ramadan-like guidelines are needed if anything more than a #8 cap toe is going on my feet. And already that ravello is calling...

I have a pair of Alden 403 Ibdy boots and a pair of 404 Kudu boots that are
about 2 months old.

Both pairs, no matter how tight I tie my laces have tongues that slide way over.

Any trick to stop this from happening? Di they eventually break in and not
do it?

If it makes you feel any better, it was a very light #8 and unlined. I like the dark 8 myself

Yes I do, but modified last is great, so I could live with a little #8

Thanks for the info though, I got a black pair of captoe boots that I think will be identical to the AF60s I bought two months ago and have only worn 3 times. Still modified is that good and at irregular pricing it's even better.

You can ask cobbler to stitch the tongue to shoe on one side. I have both of those and my 403 tongue slides on one, not sure why

A great shade indeed.

Mine were set to arrive via USPS priority on 12/6 per the tracking number.

It is 12/8 and they are not here. The beauty of the government-run postal system during the holidays .....
