Check out this bloom on these Cambridge in @bluejazzmonkey Brown! No time for that! Burnished Brown Strand SMU’s had to fill in.

This has been an odd week. There was a tornado about 3 miles away from where we reside on Wednesday. Sure, it wasn't a strong one, but any kind of tornado out here in Los Angeles is very unusual. Pretty hilarious too. No one got hurt as far as I know.

Anyway, geezer shoes for today.

Grabbed them on the last Sale before they go the way of the Dodo. Really light boot.

Fine for me.

Nothing in the Anniversary Sale brochure that interests me.

Monday morning started rough for me, so I broke out the Rough version of the MacNeil. It's still got some sort of finish on it that I'm not thrilled with, but other than that, it scratches all the itches I've ever had around a super-casual version of the LWB.

 

[Vincent George]

Yes—I’m wearing these Sanfords again. Picked up some light brown Saphir Pate de Luxe Wax Polish this weekend. Feeling slick.

Sunday and Monday shoes

 

[MajorDash]

With the pre-sale starting on Wednesday, I began to browse through the items I had put in my shopping cart for later. They’re all sold out. Granted, they were previous season items, but I’m still a touch bummed by that. I have been toying around with picking up a pair of Wilberts and maybe the white courtside sneakers. I’ve pretty much got all of the mainline staple stuff that I want at this point, and the seasonal stuff is either sold out or not really interesting me. We will see what pops up though.

Technically this was yesterday, but out come the Liverpools. They're probably overdue for some conditioning after seeing them in the sunlight.




It may be Spring now, but I'm not willing to let Winter go just yet. Tweed all around! For those who like a little outfit context, doing my take on Sam Reilly's look in Episode 9 of Reilly: Ace of Spies. Let's see if anyone here remembers that show.

Embarrassment of riches.

The amount of money I would have saved waiting for BOGOs at Woodlore makes me a bit sad, but it's good to see other weasels being financially prudent. It's just so hard to see a shoe sitting in the closet with no tree!

Do you need signatures for the petition to get the MacNeil back on the menu? I'll sign 5 times, if necessary.

And now back to Mondays... have a fun work week, all!

Isn’t that the Chicago voting method?

Just got these Delrays in. What does it mean if they bow out like this? Too long? Too wide? Not wide enough?

Forefoot feels fine in the shoe, but definitely not liking how this part looks and feels. I'm also experiencing some heel slippage, so I'm assuming they're just too big, but will getting a half size down or a different width fix this? These are 11 EEE, for reference. That's what the store manager recommended based on the measurements he took and the Strands I purchased.

 

[ProfilaBinding]

@RJNavarrete, what size are your Strands in? I wear these two in the same size. However, you might need 11 E or 11 EE.
