Brogues

[Luigi_M]

Cheaney are excellent shoes (metal eyelets apart ) and during sales one can pick nice deals. Too bad they no more ship to Italy.

Very nice, how are they for sizing? I find the Loake country last huge with my usual 11 huge.

I havent bought them (yet) I am a 10 in a Loake F width these are a G of course and they say to go down half a size.

These are new Bedales too. I would agree they are large fitting

I have been tempted to get a suede pair too but two pairs of Bedales ought to be enough for me. Almost relieved that the tobacco suede ones in the sale aren’t my size ?

I have a couple of pairs of Bedales and shoes on the same Pennine last. They are a very generous fit - lots of G fits aren’t wide enough for me but these are. Made for wearing a thick sock I suppose.

Typical,there are some well reduced in a sale but they dont have a 9.5...
Oh well maybe one to watch out for on black friday.

They have had these at the Cheaney Factory shop but not to my taste. I really like the Avon though and have some in suede. I am tempted to get another pair in a different leather.

Cheaney have a sale at the moment,the Avon in Mocha and the Blackwatch are both reduced,both have Dainite soles.

Nice selection you have there.

Do you not like metal eyelets? I do for a heavier brogue. My Church’s have blind eyelets which gives a sleeker more formal look.

Both have their place in my opinion

Neither are in my size, which is probably a good thing Not sure I could pull off the Blackwatch anyway. (Visually that is. I'd like some Chelsea boots but I have trouble literally pulling those off).
