Had to go out today and wore the denim Strandmoks. I realized this morning that I do not have many pairs of socks that work well with this color. I guess I could wear really dark blue. The shoes feel great. I cannot tell a difference between this fake dainite sole vs. the real dainite.

The 65 last and I have a love hate relationship due to my instep. I haven’t really found a size that works for me to wear the balmorals comfortably. That said, my brown grain boulevards might be the most comfortable AE’s I own. I’d be a happy man if the boulevard was a trunk show option.

I also have an extremely high instep. The Boulevards and MacNeil rock my world (like my 1st red-headed ex-wife). Saucony running shoes are magical for the high instep (I received three more pairs today).

When in doubt, go for the contrast. There are no rules… Lbvs!

Socks should be matched to pants, not shoes. (Bonus points if socks can be coordinated with both.)

Happy Friday! Lots of Ravello today. A few photos and one in direct sunlight at the end of the day.



Plaza last and the leather soles just feel like slippers.

I think a LWB and jeans is a natural. The Walton, not as much as I had thought.
