    I moved to north Texas from Minnesota. I miss the snow!

    While I don't know what you paid for those Macs, I think they look fantastic and remind me of the Jefferson 1.0's I purchased as second as well. I would keep them for certain.

    I would keep them provided you cut off this thread here (the thread of the shoe, of course).

    Given what I've paid for very high quality seconds in the past, no, I would not keep these shoes at the price you paid.

    Not always. I have a similar issue in that I have a high instep so I never get a small v-gap, even with well-fitting shoes. If I close the gap then the rest of the fitting for the shoe gets screwed up.

    At the Rack I once purchased a $100+ Hugo Boss belt for $5.00 and a Canali shirt for $5.00. The clerk told me that some items which don't sell go to a Rack store in/near Phoenix called Last Chance. When something doesn't sell there it goes back to the Rack and is $5.00 regardless of what it is...

    Very nice! Reminds me of my $3.75 for a $225.00 Canali shirt or the $20.00 for the $398.00 Armani shirt. Big fan of the Rack!

    A few more: brown Longbranch, walnut Jefferson's (my favorite pair), tan Ashbury's, and snuff suede Amok's:

    Some pictures of AE's I've been wearing lately: dark chili Carlyle's, walnut Strands, and navy Banchory's

    I don't have the ability to take a picture right now but my bourbon Manistee belt is considerably darker than the belt in your picture and also considerably darker than my bourbon Macs. Went to wear it today and thought it just didn't look right so I wore a simple AE brown belt instead.

    Those are not first quality. In fact, those look worse than the many seconds I've purchased.

    I've had my eye on a pair I was looking to replace and have never seen them drop below $157, even during significant sales. I'd say go for it.

    Ditto. I have the natural tan version and I'm very surprised at how much they've darkened over the two years I've had them. As well, they have a dirty look to them despite having taken excellent care of them. I'd be much happier if they would have stayed closer to the color when I got them (even...

    I would say a pair with a double oak sole (e.g. McTavish, Buckstrand currently on sale, etc.). A chukka boot would be nice as well.

    The picture was taken shortly after receiving them and not having conditioned with anything. Since that time I've used Leather Honey and more recently Sahpir Renovator. The hold up extremely well and the color maintains over time. Extremely comfortable as well. Also, and if it might be hard to...

    Someone recently expressed interest in a pair of natural tan McTavish so I thought I'd post a pic of my two-year old pair. These were recently treated with Renomat and went through one recraft (AE mistakenly put on a single sole instead of the double oak sole). They have been treated only with...

    Good idea. I have them in natural tan but they darkened considerably and I really need a smaller size (but the tongue pads help). I've had my eye on a second pair (this time in the proper size) for a long time now and I've never seen them below $157.00. Get them while you can!

    Don't do what I did and simply think you need to increase width. Here's my experience: I originally sized between a D and E width on an 11.5. I tried an 11.5E and the shoe was too wide and caused back pain. I went down to an 11E and the front part of the shoe (where the ball of your foot is) is...
