That's a nice look!

Here's what I came up with: started with 4 coats of Bordeaux cream then 2 coats of black on the toe box ending where my crease is.

Then I went with a light mirror polish with black wax on the toe box also ending by my natural crease. I let it sit over night then added a coat of clear wax followed by a coat of black wax just up until the end of the broguing. Then, one more black wax coat halfway of the broguing just to achieve a gradual coloring from toe to vamp.

Very dandy model and colors.

Thanks guys!

Here's pics worn in the shade and direct sunlight. Very happy how it turned out!

Are those trousers plum-coloured or is it just the light? G&G boots with plum trou is one of the least-DC fits ever.

haha yeah - I stand out like a sore thumb. My office doesn't care though. My top is still relatively toned down: navy SC, white shirt, gray tie - so I get away with it for the most part.

The trous are more maroon tweed IRL

Nice, I have those same boots. I don't end up wearing them that often, but I like looking at them.

ill bet that holds true for a lot of clothing items for a lot of SFers.

I took some pictures of my Decos today because I've put them up on B&S. I love them to death, but my wardrobe has moved in a different direction. The thing I still love most about them though - I can also tell you what stitcheroo loves most as well - is the color gradations from the toe bleaching that is done with the Deco black.

I think that one will always get me.

great shoes, ****, sorry they have to go.

I can either be possessive of them and let them sit on a shelf and rot, or they can move along and I can spend the money on my wife. Overall, I think the second option is preferable.

been there (minus the spending money on anyone but myself part) done that, bro.

If only I had a stand and a glass box for each of my G&G's
The wigmores of course being the main attraction.
