He made 2 comments (see above post), it wasn't once so he doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. I won't talk about this any further. However, i don't appreciate me sharing/helping some members turning into bad jokes at my expense.
Now let's keep this thread back on track. That recent post with the Islay sale is pretty nice. Is the toe box really as round or is there some taper?
what intro period? premier currently has 50k bonus for 3k spend in the first 3 months which might be gone soon.Thanks for sharing this information. Just signed up to Discover and will probably sign up to Citi's Thank You Premier once the intro period finishes. I can finally get rid of my CapitalOne card... no idea how I've stuck with one credit card this whole time but just an FYI for everyone else - they're sub-par when it comes to purchase protection. Unlike my Amex Plat, but that card is reserved for business and travel.
Why are you being such a baby? First of all, even if you did use the rewind thing, it has nothing to do with your buyer. If you had the option you'd be dumb not to use it. Second, I doubt every retailer accepts paypal like you claim to use. Third, stop being such a baby
Everything below is my summation from pining for and reading up on Islay's for the better part of, oh, 6 years. I've never handled or tried any on though, so it's all gleaned second hand...
The standard CJ Islay is on the 365 last which most consider roomy and has a very round, some say slightly bulbous, toe box. That's not necessarily bad though, since it makes it a classic ****-kicker boot shape. See the Quintessential CJ thread for many posts about sizing down for it (depending on what socks you plan to wear, etc.)
However, the in-house versions made for Purdey in my link (and I believe also for some other retailers, like Richard James, and occasionally Paul Stuart) are on the 325 last which is a touch more streamlined and generally considered TTS or, at most, a .5 size large (again, depending on socks and such). Note that even though the 325 isn't as full as the 365, it's still supposedly very much a country boot shape, which is what I'm hoping for.
so many people on this forum are such divas and easily offended
it totally affirms my image of a lot of the users on here (i.e. that of weirdos who think that buying expensive clothing makes them "gentlemanly" and "proper"; explains all of the pretentious posts with random french/greek/latin that i often see too)
idk why i'm trying to act surprised over dudes who're into fashion being bitches, though (though i say this as a 5'8, 125 lbs. semi-androgynous asian man, so i guess the irony or whatever is just lost on me loool)
Great deal n the OAMC bomber.
