Spectator Shoe Opinion

I'm curious to know what the group thinks about this pair of spectators. (BTW, I'm assuming these qualify as specatators even though they aren't the typical brown/white combo. Someone tell me if I'm wrong). Â I just picked up one of the Haspel seersuckers (blue) from STP. I don't own any white bucks. Can I wear these spectators with the seersucker?

I absolutely love the way these look. Tan and cream is another favorite of mine. And yes, these should look great with blue and white seersucker...just wear a brown belt, perhaps a grossgrain or cotton belt with leather ends.

By the way, what brand are these?

They look like a poxed alien urinated on them, awful.

I like the tan and dark brown combination. It's not traditional, but I think it looks good. A Harris recently posted a dynamite pair of Vass spectators similar in conception.

Who makes those?

I've never seen a poxed alien's urine.  Apparently you have, so I'll defer to your judgment.

Disagree, but that is one of the funniest similes I've ever heard.
