Are the Dries really that hard to pull-off or mesh with existing wardrobes. When I saw them in the store they looked sleek and basic. I would wear them with capes, jeans, and/or Victoria Secret Wings.

They looked like something I wished I had. Was making babyfaces while in Goodman.

The cape is just the Juun J f/w 2008 one Dismal, Winq, Ironman had. Well it was Winq's.

Damn, finally. $140. Might obviate my sudden need for plain, overpriced sneakers.

What think!?

Speaking of cobblers, is it feasible to have a thin vibram sole put on a pair of CP Officer's Boots I have? They have a decent amount of wear, but are in good shape. They currently have a leather sole and heel, which seem durable enough, but it's pretty easy to slip, especially with winter coming. What would I be looking at price wise?


if you mean a vibram topy, then that will run you like $20-$25 at a reasonable cobbler. A topy is a thin rubber covering that you would put on leather soled shoes to help protect the soles and reduce slipping.

Unless you are talking about a vibram crepe wedge-style sole, I am not sure on the price of those.
