    EDWARD GREEN Vs. Gaziano & Girling Leathers

    GG uses aniline leather. That may be the issue vs EG. In regards to the orthotics, if you have plantar fasciitis, look into EPAT treatment or Topaz surgery. I did Topaz. My feet are ? now.

    John Lobb burgundy oxford. Used.

    It looks like plum museum calf. There is nothing wrong with the shoes. They will look awesome with a navy or grey suit.

    John Lobb burgundy oxford. Used.

    https://www.styleforum.net/threads/leather-quality-and-properties.354137/page-100 John Lobb, Edward Green, Gaziano & Girling, etc... all use Baker soles, NOT JR Rendenbach soles. There is a reason. JR is popular because it is more readily available. All of the cordovan leather shoes I have...

    John Lobb burgundy oxford. Used.

    If they are available, you should buy them. They look like museum calf to me. The model looks to be the Warwick. At $175, that is a great buy. If you get them resoled, do NOT get JR soles, they are slicker than stepping in dog ****. I would spend the money and send them to Lobb when the...

    which Allen Edmonds best for a teacher?

     Not really. This is Styleforum, not the GQ forums. Traditions and rules are there for a reason. The OP is new here and obviously does not know what the rules are for pairing footwear with clothing. Nothing wrong with that... At a minimum, he should learn/know the rules. You can...
