Switched to these for the rest of the day.

Suede Chelsea’s today. The left one is slightly twisted so it rubs a bit on the back of my heel with each step. Hoping that works itself out. It’s only the second wear if these

And really, that’s what this is all about... that and shoe pr0n:

Bonus points if you know what those are (smfdoc is not allowed to say, as he already knows since I ripped these from one of his oldetime vintage thread posts).

Great shoe. I have one in brown, the Boulevard from the 1980's I think. S

New walnut strand seconds. I'm looking forward to seeing the patina develop.

Probably bitched before, but does anyone know why exactly it is AE will shoe something on the global page, but then say it’s unavailable internationally when you actually want to buy it? You’d think I’d learn, but I always get my hopes up.

Ah well, Rogues today.

I received my AE Father's Day catalog yesterday in the mail. Just a little too late.

Decided to go with Hopsky Thursday.

I think of wooden shims

Popsicle sticks.

No pics, but cuffs. I like cuffs on suits if I can, but not on casual pants (I know, heresy)

The whole pant cuffs versus non-cuffs thing makes me cranky. I like pant cuffs on some suits, no cuffs on others. If you like cuffs on your suit, do it.

However, my rules generally go like this: Single breasted: flat-front pants and no cuffs. Three piece single breasted: flat front pants, maybe cuffs or maybe no cuffs (if I have lapels on the vest, or the vest is double breasted, I may cuff the pants). Double-breasted: single forward pleat and cuffed pants - same for my one 3-piece double breasted suit.

That said, I have suits that violate my own rules. Fashion is BS, style is what matters, and if it fits well and you think it looks awesome, then you'll own it (and everyone knows when you're owning it and that makes you king-kong up in that mofo).

Nope... they're older than that...

Unavailable exactly how?

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude - Vans needs to run those puppies again! I've heard there's a dip in leather demand. I kinda doubt that's hitting Horween as much as the rest of the industry, but that's the kind of thing shoe companies should be doing to pull the younger set into good leather...

Agreed man, I love the contrasting pebble grain too.

The bolded is exactly what happened with me

The flat laces really change the tone of that shoe!
