Snow was to begin here 3 hours ago according to weather people locally, haven't seen anything yet, but you certainly have the right footwear for snow!

Unfortunately, you are correct in that assumption. It's too bad, as my income isn't increasing at a similar rate, so my shell purchases will have to go down (or away)

Yep, sad but it's true.

Hard to beat suede boots and cords!

and made in USA 100% cotton rugbies

Comfortable and classic.

Taking a cue from @savvysartorial suede and cords this morning View attachment 1317313

Ooh boy, that is looking really nice. Some nice tone on tone

I really like black shell. I guess it’s just a matter of what they are paired with.

Black shell is highly underrated. It's like staring at a black jelly bean; surprisingly there is depth even on a black surface!

Definitely one of my top 5 favorite boots. Brogue Terranova.

Now here something I havent seen yet. Tankers on leather from brogue, looks great in my opinion.

Just got an email about them...Alden has gone past my maximum price point on shell. Too bad, as they look great.

What's the price nowadays? Assuming there was the annual "adjustment".

Says the guy with 100 pairs!

 

[bespoken pa]

100 those are rookie numbers......

 

[audog]

100 those are rookie numbers......

I may be a rookie, but I have my price limits......

 

[audog]

What's the price nowadays? Assuming there was the annual "adjustment".

Over $800, which is my self imposed limit.

 

[madhat]

Over $800, which is my self imposed limit.

Just buy 0.9 as many pairs

 

[Thrift Couture]

Over $800, which is my self imposed limit.

Not a bad thing. The recent Ravello drop broke the $900 ceiling.
