I've added it to my signature to make everyone's life a little easier.

On the sole options chart, what do the orange shading in some boxes signify?

Things that will only be available through a salesperson. They are style/color combos that you won't be able to order online during the trunk show.

If you haven't sent them back yet, consider shooting them over to me. I'll make sure these are looked at, and I'll make sure your next pair are made with special attention. I'm sorry for this.

Ashley, thank you for the offer. I thought about messaging you before I sent them back. It is the same patchy, waxy leather as the old liverpool distressed brown pair I have. The description led me to belief it was kudu or plain suede which is why I ordered. I didn't think they would make a custom pair out of regular snuff so I returned them.
Maybe next season.

Lord give us strength! We will be excited to hear about it.
We will be bitting our fingernails and drinking cheap dry red wine....
Please keep us updated!

interestingly, your wording has a connection to what I’m doing!

Black and Blue today.

No specific reason for breaking out the brown kudu Normandy other than the fact that they're comfortable, good-looking, and smell great. Wore some freshly laundered selvedge just to trigger some folks who may be in the "never wash selvedge" camp. Mine get washed and air dried and spend the first couple of post-wash wears working out all those weird wrinkles that come from air drying. Oh well.

Although, I am a little concerned that this photo and post may have violated the terms around explicit content listed at the top of the page. Please don't ban me!

Long day at work today, I'm taking Friday off for a motorcycle ride in the mountains to enjoy the last of the fall colors. Lunch with an old friend (old can mean long-term or just damn old here) today.

Navy Shell McAllisters. Again.

I, too, saw the ban warning for the posting of "misinformation." I now realize I run the risk of being irreversibly banned for advocating the acceptance of "brown in town."

Are you not supposed to iron selvedge?

Uh oh. Maybe I'll be banned for some recent discussions regarding my sartorial preferences...

Egads!

Not when your legs themselves are stronger than iron. Fear my calves!!!! If my legs can't get these jeans in shape, no modern contraption will be able to, either.

In all honesty, I'm just way too lazy to iron jeans that nobody else will see today as I WFH, especially when the wrinkles are gone after one good morning of wear.

I do so fear.

I do so fear.

So say we all.

Today’s first wear. Recently found these, got them resoled by Wyatt and Dad. They fit like a glove and are already one of my favorite pairs. Alligator saddles!

Today, an email went out outlining host store locations, and mentioned Madison Ave. Although they are well equipped to help you, Rock Center remains the actual host store. I'm sorry for the error.
