I must assume you are joking. Doesn’t everyone know Maurice?

He looks like Bill Withers. Today, I recorded a quick and dirty version of "USE ME"

 

[smfdoc]

I have an important question. Who is that man in the photograph???

That is Maurice White, lead singer of Earth, Wind and Fire.

I’m not digging the stock laces, but the style and fit are fantastic.

These look an awful lot like the Grant Stone Ottawa - didn't know AE had anything that looked like these...

Offer it in walnut shell (or any shell for that matter) and you can have my money.

Was going to say something similar. Bourbon Delray would be sweet

After watching the live stream, I have to say I was turned on by the navy Parks with the blue Dainite and the green Parks with the olive Dainite. Part of me wishes I would have waited for this TS to order a green Strand. However, saving $400 was a nice tradeoff. First world problems.

Those ARE GS Ottawa boots, with those ubiquitous GS leather laces

Interesting how the Park Sneaker outsold the Park Avenue as well, right? A lot of people in the chat seemed excited for the new sneakers, which is pretty cool.

I was going to add, I think the cognac Strand (or McC) would look the best out of all possible cognac options. Just my .02.

AE's Facebook live video was educational... Focker me dead.
I would have preferred to pull weeds from the neighbors garden.

What's more interesting is this 2020 thread was started by the strand king, and they aren't offering the strand sneaker in the TS. I just wonder how much money you would have coughed up for new versions you don't own

I don’t have a Facebook account, but the live stream video is available on the AE public page...

Gents-
Need to raise some cash, so I am listing my Natty Shell McNeils and Strands, both size 10.5D. Shipped for $750 with bags and a non matching box.

Holy smokes -- sorry you are needing to raise cash, but whoa those are fantastic! My wallet is thankful they are not size 11!!!

Spoiler: Honey Glazed Shell

Wearing the honey glazed Grant Stones today - close approximation to natty shell (if not basically the same but just a different name)
