Shoes: Your most complimented pair of shoes (that youre not afraid to wear regularly)

[chogall]

This is less offensive than some of the extreme chisel contest or lace masquerade in the bespoke shoes thread.

When people say "Nice shoes" it's more likely find it interesting looking but not necessarily something they would like to wear.

+100.

The ladies seem enjoy these, although, I think they're more attracted by the fact that I care about my shoes than the shoe itself. C'est la vie.

I have received more compliments on a pair of extremely average driving loafers I received as a gift than any other pair of shoes before or since. Therefore I disregard those completely and utterly. However a pair of Trickers Stow boots in acorn have 3 compliments so far. One from a lather worker, and two from rather good looking women. I suspect the colour makes them stand out. Otherwise, a pair of suede brogues are sitting on -1 "You shouldn't have bought those, they will stain," a pair of chelseas on -1 "the weird red soles" and the rest - mostly wholecuts, some even highly regarded here - don't get as much as a look.

I've noticed the same. My Mark Nasons (yes, I used to wear those ugly ones before SF), got more far compliments than my nice shoes do now.

these tend to always get noticed...my sutor doubel monks I picked up on B&S for a steal...

I bought these shoes at Bergdorf Goodman 5 years ago, and still wear them all the time. One of my most favorite shoes I own. I've never worn them without atleast a few compliments.

Tons of compliments every ******* time I wear them. I don't like them at all, though they're still in my closet because of the insane amount of compliments I get from them.

Church's Custom Grade nubuck horsebit loafers.

Onix! Fantastic shoes.

These are definately my most complimented shoes. The Lowndes.
