I have them with the navy/red ribbon. I wear mine only in spring/summer due to the ribbon, and find that they work very well with my summer clothing. I like them a lot but I'm not a fan of the ones with the green/navy ribbon. Mine were also on discount from GVH last spring.

For those that own these shoes, what sort of clothing do you pair them with? They seem like they'd be rather tough to match in terms of formality.

I wear mine with casual clothing mostly. One combo I recall included white linen pants, blue linen gingham shirt, and a navy linen db blazer. I also wore them with shorts and polo shirts.

I just ordered a pair. They are pretty obnoxious in a velvet slipper kind of way.

I almost want these simply because I love the way cordovan creases no matter how obnoxious the shoe on which it does.
