    PSA - Grenson Masterpiece and Gravati Blowout

    Thanks gdot. Makes sense - I just don't have a lot of experience with high-end shoes. I appreciate the explanation. So are Paul Stuart shoes well respected as far as quality? They definitely look and feel great. Apologies for my noob-ness.

    PSA - Grenson Masterpiece and Gravati Blowout

    I got the shoes I ordered from Rider yesterday. I ordered what the site says was "Gravati" (the black seam-toe) but when I received them, they are Paul Stuart (Italy). Am I missing something? http://www.riderbootshop.com/products/Gravati-17860-Black.html

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    At the Dallas Trunk show, Tony had the Regency on display in Polo suede. It's actually the one I've ordered, except with a cap toe and medallion. See pic...

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    Wow - what an unbelievable wealth of knowledge. Can't tell you how much I appreciate everyone's input. Thanks for the help. I think I've decided on the Windsor in Vintage Chestnut. If Tony can find a last, that is. I have huge feet (UK12.5), and he seemed uncertain about if they had an...

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    Sorry - I simply meant if I'm limited to one pair of G&G should I go the calf or pigskin route as opposed to suede. I'd originally wanted shell, but Tony explained how they have a hard time finding shell which meets their high standards. I've never paid $1200 for a pair of shoes, so I was just...

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    General question - I'm a noob so this'll probably sound dumb - but if I can only afford one pair of G&G, is it a waste to have them made-up in suede? I wear jeans more often than not, and I'm in Texas where the weather won't destroy suede.

    The Despos Thread

    I actually was just at his shop (in Dallas) about an hour ago. Tony from Gaziano & Girling was there and fitted me for a beautiful pair of monks. The sartorial highlight of my life thus far (which I realize is pretty sad). Anyway, the fact that Despos was the one place in the South G&G made a...

    Cologne for an aspiring young gentleman

    Comme des Garcons Vettiveru. It's an Eau de Cologne so it's not overbearing, and it's a vetiver-based scent which is masculine while not being ridiculously macho. It's relatively safe while not being what every other guy on campus is going to be wearing.

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    I'm new to SF, but would anybody mind telling me if you think this jacket is a good buy for $79. Wool body with leather sleeves. It's used but's in good shape. Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Too old for sneakers?

    I'm with ya, man. I'm 33 and have tried the sneaker thing. Old school Pumas, Adidas Rod Lavers, Common Projects, and they never feel right. The compromise I've made is Sanuks. They're as casual as I get.

    Where does Gilded Age get off

    Whether you think it's a gimmick or not, Gilded Age charge so much for their jeans because they dye their denim with 100% natural indigo (as in, from the actual indigo plant). There aren't more than 2 or 3 other companies which use this technique, and Studio d'Artisan is one of them. So, as far...

    What Are You Wearing Now/Today? Pictures only - no discussion (3.0)

    What's worse is that an $80 outfit from the Gap could be made to look head and shoulders above his desparate $2500 fit.

    Ask a Question, Get an Answer - ask all quick questions here

    I'm a noob and, therefore, don't know much about anything. I did, however, just purchase my first pair of Trickers. They're derbys. My question is this: I want eyelets for them but don't know the first thing about eyelets. How should I go about figuring out which eyelets to get for my shoes? I...
