Looking great Saz. I'm quite tempted to snag this makeup. (I don't even have the color 8 version). Enjoy them often and in great health my friend!

I have a pair of the 990 PTB in a 10E and they are incredibly comfortable, I love them. This is making me lust after a pair of 975s, this may be a stupid question but would the brogued design 975 fit as comfortably as the PTB on the same Barrie's last in the same size?

Overall I would say yes. I find that the LWB pattern has a lower heel cup compared to my PTB. So in that aspect I find the PTB slightly more comfortable. YMMV though of course.

I saw a dude near my office yesterday wearing Indys. I almost said something to him - but then I thought - he may just a be normal guy (unlike us addicts) who has 1 pair of boots in his closet and they just happen to be Indys because he had some gift cards from J. Crew.

He may think a stranger approaching him on the street to comment about his boots is quite odd, or maybe he'd think I'm hitting on him. Either way, I didn't wanna be that guy, so I just admired the boots and walked on, thinking, I really do think about shoes wayyyyyy too much.

:sarcasm:
I think people enjoy compliments. I appreciate them, even when it's for something I'm not fanatical about. If I don't want to seem too shoe nerdy, I just say nice boots or nice shine.

I get compliments on my shoes quite a bit. Mainly from women, and almost always for my colour 8's. I just smile, say thanks and change the subject. They have no idea..
