Even at 50% off, with an extra 20% discount, and using Forex's 20%-discounted gift cards?

No, because why should I buy what I don't like and won't wear?

A rep at BB's Madison Ave. Black Fleece department told me that the UK shoes for Thom Browne's eponymous label are made by Tricker's but that the UK shoes for the Black Fleece line are made by C&J.

I like BF shoes,they should offer more shoes but stay away from funky designs,black white spectators,etc.

For that price,I'd consider the $4,000 Cordovan brief case

The white saddle shoes are nice, but I can't bring myself to wear a white shoe.

+1. I would feel silly wearing white saddle shoes to work.

For me, I couldn't wear them for work or play.

It may be my lack of imagination, but I can't think of any scenario where this color would look good with one's attire.

Do you think the supposedly upcoming F&F sale will be better than the current promo which ends Sunday, March 14?

$60 off $300 purchase
$125 off $500 purchase
$250 off $800 purchase

I have gift cards and need a blazer and shirts.
