The crocodile moccasin may be the silliest looking shoe I have ever seen.

Am I missing something? Where's the Kenneth Cole toe? I see Edward Green 888, not Kenneth Cole.

I am not so sad, as the socks are what I care for 2nd, the most in the store, far behind 1 wonderful saleswoman who walks through my dream with a tape measure hanging out of her pocket.

I think a lot of the shoes look great except for one ugly detail:

Love the design, but what's going on with the last shape. Looks very funny:

I was referring to the bicycle front and occassional super bulky rubber soles the when I mentioned KC--the two qualities I associate the brand with.

I don't see anything remotely KCole.

The wholecuts seem nice. Some definite Italian influence.

I agree. There's something off on those new PS last shapes. The vamp is too long or something. Compare with the proportions on the EG 888:

IMO, the EG is vastly superior.
