I was thinking of getting suede brown ones but in the end went for these...What do you think? Yey or nay?



Did you get the costume of Austin Power too ?

I picked up off of ebay, used C&J Handgrade Belgrave in Dark Oak (I think that's the color) for approx. $125

Have them on today and they feel incredible!! These have very little wear and are incredible to look at. Everyone is asking me about them at work.

BV stuff have been SOLD!!! Valextra wallet in navy - not my best pic, took these the other day in the hotel room (but the lighting was terrible) will do tomorrow in natural light. The wallet is nice & flat - I just don't get men with THICK wallets. The design is quite good in that the credit card slots are spaced nicely on the left. The right has a flap for receipts etc. The cash section has a divider, but the wallet when folded is approximately the size of a passport so it sits nicely in the breast pocket.

Wonderful looking shoes!



I ordered a couple of items in the Ede MTM sale today.

- a 3 piece suit from a black/white houndstooth flannel. 2 button, peak lapels, double vented with a SB waistcoat. Conservative dark navy lining and dark brown/grey horn buttons
- a DB peak lapel waistcoat from a dove grey mottled flannel with a fawn-coloured back and dark grey horn buttons.

Can't wait to get them!

I think this is the first time I've actually seen your BV wallet and clip. Very nice! May you find a good and loving home for them.

I've redone my entire shoe wardrobe in the past 2-1/2 months.

Borgioli Wingtips
BB Peal suede wings
BB Peal suede chukkas
BB Peal tan plaintoe wings (on their way!)
Rider RBCB1 shell cordovan chukkas
C&J for Robert Old Norfolk captoe boots (on their way!)
NOS Florsheim ankle boots (just bought em from B&S 15 minutes ago)

I think I'm going to have to take a break now.

Like Douglas above, I've almost completely re-done my shoe collection in past 3 months. I had been wearing 4 pairs of world-traveled and much-loved J&M's (Aristocraft) from the mid-90's that have finally been retired. Probably would have kept on with them were it not for finding this forum....

New:

Aldens
986 LHS in #8 shell
Norwegian split-toe #8 shell
Norwegian split-toe loafer #8 shell (great ebay find - love these)
Wingtip bal shell - black
Medallion cap-toe blucher shell - black

A-E
Macneil longwings shell cordovan
Soho cap-toes - black

BB/Peal bal cap-toes - chestnut
RM Williams Craftsman - dark brown suede
RM Williams Craftsman - yearling chestnut

I think I need a break too! Too much Styleforum influence - must...not...look...anymore...
