Hows sizing?

I wear a 9 for Nike/Jordans and went with a 41. They're slightly narrow in the toe but not blazer narrow and seem fine on length. I don't think I could wear a 40 without pain (I have a pair of CPs in 40 and they hurt after a while, just never got rid of them) and a 42 would be huge.

Quality seems on point. It's still a canvas shoe but at first touch appears well made.

What boots are those?

Thanks for asking. They're a Vibram resoled pair of moc sneakers that I'd bought back when I was in Argentina for a bit. More pics / before-after:

Guido (same Argentine maker as chukkas from a while back) resoled mocasines, with Zam pants

Guys what’s the consensus on sweatspants?

I have LA’s in 26oz, but never got the lightweight ones. I think I recall someone saying the elastic hems weren’t as tight on the lightweight, so you couldn’t get the stacked look as the hem didn’t stand up to it.

are the Sochis the go-to now over the lightweight LAs? I need some black and some grey sweats.

Or is it worth going with a brand like Coke Buxton and saving a few $$$

check out uniform la. They recently dropped some great heavyweight sweats, lots of pics and reviews in the thread.

Haven't had experience with JE sweats, but I love my Cole Buxton ones. Only issue I have is that they're too heavy to wear in Hawaii as much as I would like to.

Sochi’s are a great lightweight material, but if you want them to stack you’ll need to pull them up to mid-shin at least. The inseam on them are pretty short.

You have to be trying to be a dick...
I’m trying to figure out the vision for this shoe and overwhelming lack of excitement for it on here. Is it supposedly to look “Made in Italy” unfinished or is it a neo-vintage heel scuff?

Owners of The Daze in Raw - do these bleed on shoes? If I recall the raw Cast 2s don’t bleed too bad.
