If my “designer” dressed like that, I’d look for a new designer.
Yeah, I’m with you on this. If you wear ridiculous looking clown shoes, your status as a “designer” is entirely suspect.

Oh hell, I’ve had a few too many and it’s way to hot to be nice. So I’m just gonna burn this muhf_cker down: the dude, complete with his sequined shorts, looks like a marsupialed attention-whore. Not an SF peacock, not an avant-garde type; just a tacky, clown-shoe wearing moron with absolutely no taste.

Disregard the floating shelf. The [expletive deleted] lazy [expletive deleted] who built our house apparently felt the need to triple-up areas of sheetrock for the walls. So the stud finder registered false positives and now i get to replace a whole [expletive deleted] wall.

So that was an entire weekend wasted.
Oh, we must have the same builder!

Ryan Homes. Nationwide purveyors of cut corners (just not any of them 90*, mind you....seriously ZERO right angles anywhere in this house....EVERYTHING is crooked--just like the builder), code violations, and paid-off building inspectors everywhere hastily-built profiteering occurs.

Okay, maybe my house isn’t that bad after all.

Would something like this bug you guys or am I obsessing over irrelevencies? These are a pair of older Macneils.

Are the firsts or seconds? If seconds, I wouldn’t care. If full priced firsts, that’d not be acceptable in my book.

The big question is, does it bother you? Only you can answer that question.

That's my perspective as well. They appear to be firsts, although used. I'm not sure how much it would bother me. Looking at a zoomed in photo it bothers me. On foot, I suspect it's not obvious.

How much are we talking for these shoes. Got any additional photos (full shoes, linings, soles)?
