2 1/2 year old natural CXL Addison loafers today. AE belt (Sterling Ave). All discontinued products but AE should bring back casual, MIUSA GYW loafers like these!

Not shell, but I wonder if AE is going to offer the Tinsel Avenue again this holiday season:

If not, these could go down as one of the rarest Strand variants ever made. I think they were on sale for a week and a half before being pulled from the web store?

Okay, I'm just going to say it - it's weird that you think about shoes in the shower.

Seriously though, those things are something else. Not for me necessarily but I sure like looking at them.

Could someone please recommend a summer derby buck in suede or nubuck? I guess AE has the Nomad but they don’t offer it in E or EE.

Bond street tonight. Still don't like the technohorse, but these babies do take a shine, so whatever that is, it ain't normal corrected grain.

I don’t think that Mahogany will be a great color for the Strand. Too many elements to get the color right.

WOW, those are stunning. And Voltaire is awesome!

Yes they are quite something! Voltaire really does some cool stuff and his makeups fit what I'm after most of the time.

Killer casual shoe! They look like they've aged well and they enjoy being on foot.

Alden derby in suede.... They offer widths. You won't be disappointed by Alden's suede products... Top of the line.

They'll be Barrie lasted, which is usually 1/2 size down from AE 65 last. If the price is too much, figure out your size and check out. Some steals to be had on there for suede stuff.

I was going to say that or Alden. You can get into Alden pretty cheap if you do suede, used.

Good looking chukkas. It's about that time of the year, which reminds me I have to pull mine out and start wearing them!

For the record, I appreciate such things and many of us post them regularly on the vintage thread. Seems to be much less common on other threads in my experience but I have no objection. Then again, I am not the SF police and have no time to scrutinize @NYCTechNerd affiliate links (too soon?, I kid I kid)...

One more Brooks Brothers by Allen Edmonds (without affiliate links unless they are from SF).
If anyone wears an 8D this appears to be a great AE shoe at a great price: $160.50

Are those your mahogany 5th’s?

I am really excited about getting the LandShark boots. I’ve wanted some sharkskin boots for a couple of years. The texture is phenomenal.

A year or two ago, I decided to order a pair of boots from Rancourt made from bison leather. (This model is not typically made in bison — it was a special order.) I love the texture of this bison leather too. I especially like how the brogueing becomes a subtle element in these boots — it’s an unexpected detail.

Your texture is phenomenal. My cognac bison is still great just more subtle

Drop AE chukka in line to get shot

Annual suede cleaning and waterproofing day. A few pair needed some spot cleaning, they all needed brushing, and all but three pairs were waterproofed (ran out of spray - more is on the way).

I had a can of nano spray and what was left of an AE waterproofing can. The AE can scared the crap out of me because it turned the white Nomads yellow. Fortunately, they dried white. Phew!




Happy Friday gents! Have a fantastic weekend!
