screw you guys, cigar chukka is my favorite shoe!

I do not own a chukka, but the cigar would without a doubt, be my first choice. Surprisingly, the black shell chukka on commando might be my second.

Which two of these would you sell

Color 8 tanker (Barrie, commando)
Color 8 wingtip boot (Barrie, commando)
Color 8 captoe boot (plaza, commando)
Black captoe boot (Grant, leather)
Black tanker (Barrie, commando)
Cigar captoe boot (Grant, commando)
Cigar chukka (Barrie, leather )

Black Tanker- First cut
Color 8 WT boot - Second cut, assuming you had 975... or similar

I'd keep all the #8s … nice family. Definitely lose the cigar chukka (though I do love my #8 Chukkas). I'd part with a black pair. Choosing the one you wear the least. What size are you again? Might wanna black boot

Black captoe boot (Grant, leather)
Black tanker (Barrie, commando)
Cigar captoe boot (Grant, commando)
Cigar chukka (Barrie, leather )

I would kill for that line up, and wouldnt sell a thing. That being said, if I HAD to choose, I'd get rid of the Black cap toe boot and the black tanker. Never been a huge tanker fan, and I don't wear black shoes/boots very often. But again, I would keep all of them. Unless you're my size....

Nice ensamble. The Wingtips look killer and really pop.

a joking pic from another forum about the resiliency of cxl..

started as a scrap whilst holding the door for a pretty woman




which then escalated into an inscription



which then expanded



and then finally, after less than a minute with a cheap horsehair




as much as I LOATHE CXL for its creasing, I cannot underappreciate the ability to work out scuffs etc since it is so oily..

I would sell black captoe boot in favor of keeping the cigar version. Maybe the #8 tanker considering you have the black version and two other #8 boots but it would be a really tough call.
