I admit it, It was me.

You insult me, I would NEVER wear faux rattlesnake.

It´s faux mamba or nothing.

My first "serious" shoes, for a given value of "serious".

Was it for a bet?

I love exotic skins but that is too much for my liking.

And, uh... how have they aged? Let's see some patina!

Oh yes, the patina. Allow me to point it out to you with the power of photoshop.

I just realized the shoes are F width. Thats another thing I´d never heard about then, I wear D´s now.
They are, how can I say this..roomy.

 

[landshark]

I would certainly wear those.

Even from the limited perspective of a noob, I would say Those can be styled. They're single pointed, and a power play, but pick the outfit, the occasion, the play, You go, boy! P

This thread makes me regret not picking up those brown/pink Barker spectators.

£20 is not too bad. I'm sure others have done worse.

That said, the only time I will be pimping those is if the snake had attacked me so I can make an example out of it and have a cool story to tell.

That reminds me, when I was 18 I went longlining in the Barents sea for the summer holidays. Two days into what would be a seven week stint a large wolf-fish ripped a huge chunk off my steel toe wellingtons. After the initial shock (those fish got TEETH) I stamped it to death, filetet it, and brought it home with me. It was delicious.

Yes, one of those. I was terrified.

True story.

Not bad for 20. I have seen ten times prized worst kiton ties.

Doesn't mt_spiffy have a few pairs of those?
