Does anyone actually wear shoes like this?

[jrd617]

Is this a topseller for AE or something? Freaking blue distressed wingtip chukkas with red brick sole?

As GBR would say: dreadful.

Hopefully not

That shoe looks exactly like something my friends gfs would try to get them to buy.

I don't mind the colour, or the distressed leather, or the red soles, although perhaps not all together, on a casual boot. But this particular design looks like an unfortunate collision of a desert boot and a longwing, styles that do not really belong together.

I can imagine it was designed by a committee brainstorming what would look really cool in a boot. I'm just surprised it doesn't have monkstraps too.

+1.

What, no obnoxiously colored laces? Seeing far too much of this kind of thing as of late. I'm ready for the "lets just pile everything on" phase to be done with. I do have a pair of C & J Skyes that I like but that's as busy as I get.

Such stupid names too

"Cronmok" - wtf?

"Neumok"

"Strandmok"

 

[jrd617]

Some "Cronmok" fit pics from Google.

I've been curious myself about these newfangled names AE is coming up with of late. 'Honey, have you seen my Cronmoks?'

 

[Mr Pink]

I have the blue Neumok's and they're amazing. Never had so many compliments on a shoe before.

I agree on the Chukkamoks tho. I wanted to order those yesterday because the deal was so good, but I just couldn't do it haha

I don't have any of these, but my understanding is the Strandmok and Neumok are both big sellers. In fact, I think the Neumok is now available at Brooks Brothers.
