If anyone is interested in my Hugo Boss wingtip, I bought these last year ,but worn them about 20 times.
Past few months they have been sitting in my office drawer in a shoebox.

The problem is that they are too large.

They are labeled 9.5 but they are sized like they are 10.5-11.

12.5 inches long about 4 1/4 inches wide.


Here is a picture:

for Hugo boss they are pretty nice. good hefty shoe with nice thick channeled sole and decent shoe design and last.

let me know what your offer is if you are interested.
i can get more photos as well.

Just how much are you looking for?

Pics of them worn would be good as well. The chiseled toe interests me, but I don't know how that translates into my wardrobe.

someone asked, why you wear the shoes 20 times when they were too big?

well, first of all i wore a dr. scholls insole thing with them several times.

then for some reason those things hurt my arch, so i took them out and wore them with thicker socks to work a few times.
but still they were too big

at work it is just walk to the car, go walk through the parking lot and sit on my butt or walk short distances and stuff.

if i walked all day in them like at Six Flags Magic Mountain, i would have said forget it that first day.

i still have the box and bags. bags are practically new because the shoes were never put in dirty.

the shoe box came with the shoes but it does not match the shoes description, misplaced into this box at retailers i suppose.

Wow great price, and I like the style, do you remember the model name or number? If I can find those really cheap they would make a good backup shoe, been looking for a wingtip. I don't seem to see them in the current boss lineup.

i forgot where i actually bought them i think saks outlet but the box is not the ones for this so i dont know. it is some old model before 2005 as i got them end of that year. compared to alot of other hb shoes ive seen, these are the most substantial ive seen.
i dont know what their retail was, but most boss black shoes ive seen are240-350
