Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

I know your not a Boot Guy or anything, but you are welcome to partake...

Thanks for the invite, however with 3 in the works at this point I'm going to have to pass.


Besides one of those is a boot, and since I'm a shoe guy that's already one more than the norm. LOL

What is the price for these?

10 000 SEK.

The temptation is strong with this one, I promised myself not to buy a pair of shoes before summer. Since I study my cashflow isn't the best at the moment, however I worked over the christmas break. So you never know.

When is it due?

Should do it!

Thanks for the recommendations and swatches@Leaves @murakamiharuki @laufer . I think I'm going for the natural edge. Hope it turns out like the third pic. So vibrant.

i think that will be a great choice!

Thanks, I'm excited. I think my next one will be the Warwick in Vintage Oak. Not sure of last but I have till February 28 to book it before the price increase.

That may only be a shoe, but that looks pretty good!! LOL


Seriously though, great looking shoe.

One of my favourite styles from G&G, it's one of few styles that will look good on any of their lasts.

I recall seeing something about polishing British Racing Green G&Gs somewhere. I thought it was on this thread, but I can't find it.

So far, I've been using the shoe snob's neutral wax polish, with okay, but not outstanding, results.

Any wisdom would be much appreciated.

That's one lovely pair... I think I'd love this on the MH71.
