Plaid shoes for summer - opinions?

[joel_954]

Which of these 3 do you like the most?

#1

#2

#3

I like the colors in #2 best but I like #1 best overall. I don't like the RL logo on the last two.

There are a few more colors of the madras RL shoe I believe. It actually caught my eye the other day but the logo and the overall construction were just meh.

They have an oddly low retail of $59 though.

If you want colorful madras shoes, look at J. Crew. They're on sale right now...

Are they like the other douchebag shoes at J crew where you pay $15-30 over regular MSRP for "worn" Purcells and Sperrys?

 

[wmmk]

They're Purcells, but they're only $20. Looks like the website only had them in sizes 5 and 6. Call customer service if you really want a pair.

Thanks for the replies! I'm gonna go to the Vans store at Mall of America tomorrow and get #1.

$52/no tax in MN - They're $10 more than the slip-ons cuz of the laces

j/k

I don't understand why Zappos charges $58 for the exact same shoe..?

 

[Lel]

Because Zappos does free overnight shipping, free shipping on returns, and the website has a much larger stock of shoes than your average mall store... do you really need to ask about a 6 dollar difference?

+1.

If you need a size 10 I have a near new pair of last years J.Crew Jack Purcell madras slip-ons that I'd be willing to part with for a good price. And I am in Bloomington.

Shoot! I'm a size 9.

On another note, Zappos is sold out of the Vans in size 9. That's why I am going to the Vans store. Otherwise I'd support one of the SF supporters.

Good choice.
