An old friend of mine got the gig there, I was gonna apply too, good for him though. I just don't understand why he or anyone would style everything with ******* deck shoes/boots.

I too, am leaning towards cap toe, it's swagged out and would look straight up sexy. gonna be lots of footwear pick ups for me this year, breaking my no leather rule for those. Hyped. Should I get a colored pull tab like red or something?

number three is representative of the leather I am choosing, the silhouettes are 1 and 2. I have my Junya Brogue Boots. This would be my winter/everyday boots.

I realize you've probably given this a ton of thought already, but I'm wondering how that leather on the wingtips really will look in a plain cap-toe. Do you think it'll end up being a bit one-dimensional without the dark accents from the brogueing and the wings?

either way I think some red pull tabs could be a nice touch, not sure what else would look good besides that or even orange? A kelly green could really pop with that leather but I'm not sure how that would fit in with your current steez

I would do Kelly green most likely, and it's a good point, I could do suede too I'm just trying to move away from it. Any suggestions will be taken will from you, tween.
