I hate the funny seam around the welt on the boot. It's affected and silly. Otherwise it's not bad, though it wouldn't be my first choice.

I sort of hate the loafers but I could see owning one of them as a country shoe - for fall walks in the field with a pair of cords on. But again, I'd probably have other first choices for that purpose.

I love the boots, but the other two not so much.

No on the boots, penny loafer is ok (don't like the sole), not a fan of the tassel loafers (also don't like the sole).

Maybe #2 for the foul weather days.

It looks like the chukkas are foul-weather shoes as well?

Bad , really bad , all of them.

P.S. They look like they might **** Gaziano and Girlings while you are asleep . My only hope that your VASS army would stomp them to death.

Out of the three, I like the chukkas the most, though I like the second seem in the front and am not a huge fan of the shape of the toe. I might by them if I ran into them for $30 at Filene's, but wouldn't go much higher than that. The other two, I can't see myself wearing, as I agree with everyone else that the thickness of the soles looks incongruous with the style of shoe.

I can't tell if this is for real or a joke. are they wicked expensive, ugly shoes or something?

I wouldn't wear any of them, but generally hate loafers. The boots, well I like the color and the last just fine, but the stitching is just too . . . well . . . ugly for me.
