Some New Loake and Herring Chukkas

Which is which? Might you name the herring model name?

 

[HarryPalmer]

They might be the Strathclydes from graduate collection. http://www.herringshoes.co.uk/produ...&shoeID=2247&selectedSizeID=0&selectedFitID=0

If they are, how do you find the quality of them Mr. K, if I may ask?

 

[Mr.K]

The Loakes are on the left and they are the Sahara suede boots and the Herrings are on the right, and yes they are the Strathclydes. They seem OK. I just got them the other day, so I have not worn them yet. I am sure that much better could be found, but i just have a hard time spending more than 200.00 for a pair of shoes right now. They are made by Loake, so they should hold up well with time. i just bough them because I wanted a shoe with a rubber sole for the winter and the rain.

 

[Schweino]

How is the sole stitching on the inside? I often dislike blake stitched shoes because you can feel the stitches on the inside.

 

[Nataku]

Monkey socks from Per Pedes (Carolina Artisans sucessor).

I intend to get a suede shoes for a place full of rain too but wouldn't the suede be damage with water contact?

 

[Mr.K]

The Herring are for the rain. They also have a rubber sole.

Just picked up a Hickey Freeman suit for $300 down from $1545. Navy, soft pinstripe. Only downside (if you call it that) is it's a 3B - but I don't really care as I was in desperate need for a navy suit and it was a great deal.

Picked up a pair of Paul Smith dip-dyed Ricard boots in brown. A little out of my comfort zone, but I'm digging 'em. Let's see how I feel once the sun comes up.
