Collonil Supreme Creme De Luxe on the uppers with a little wax around the front. And Meltonian black cream polish along the edges. Also used a soft toothbrush and water to lift dust out of the welts and get some black color in there.

Look at the pebble grain leather on this MacNeil pair. Not AE's finest work.

My house shoes. Allen Edmonds kiltie loafers. Vintage 1990s, I think. Yes, I feel old because I have dedicated house shoes, just like Mr. Rogers.

I think having house shoes is important! Wearing shoes indoors gives us the opportunity to wear more pairs. I have a couple pairs of Dack's loafers dedicated to the house only, including this simple dollar pair of beater calf with hand sewn vamps that I am wearing this afternoon. They don't make me feel one bit old!

I’m sort of tempted by these Foot Joys. They have a cool wing tip design. I know Fiot Joy made good shoes, but does anyone have any insight about this pair?

The foot joy classics were still quite well made. They were made through the 70s and 80s I believe.

These are in my watchlist as well, but mainly out of curiosity for what they sell for.

Thanks fellas. I’m curious about the extent of damage on the left toe. I messaged the seller.

Wow it looks like a plastic embossed toy binocular case material that a kid in the 70’s would get after selling 100 copies of GRIT!

Is it just me, or do most members here always have the 300 limit on their eBay watch list? Especially with WFH, I am scouring eBay for hours a day.
