To avoid this
Great, now throw some mud on them and be on your way
I like the Lobbs in particular and the Vass as well. I don't think there's anything wrong with the quality of the leather and the colour is just that...colour. It has more to do with personal preferences...and other wholly subjective perceptions....than whether it's intrinsically cheap--it's not, in my mind.
Which pair of Vass were you referring to that has toe medallions that go all the way down to the welt line?
I see your point - I would probably also prefer the brass to a light, aluminium coloured buckle for th reasons you have outlined. Ideally, for me, I would like to see a neutral smokey steel colour on those navy Vass - IMO this would would be more versatile than even the brass. But again, that's just my preference and I still really like these shoes with the standard brass fitting as well.
I own this exact Vass blue monk and would never want to have a silver buckle on it. I wear it these shoes with greys, beige and brown colors and with jeans so to me the brass buckle is perfect. I don't know what people here think they would pair them with and why they think silver would be better.
I didn't know buckle color was an option I had?
With regard to the silver buckle...I find this strange. I would always pair silver with cool colours--grey, black, navy; and brass with warm colours--browns, tans, wine or burgundy. As someone said...different horses.
