I'm just delighted that the stimulus package money is being put to good use.

Thanks, I really like them too. As someone mentioned they are whiskey shell.

I picked them up new from a fine fellow SF member

Interestingly, theshoemart.com from whence they came just restocked these and some other hard to find Alden shoes yesterday or the day before.

I am waiting for the picture of the Ravello captoe bluchers to show up....

So, how do you tell people you want to take pictures of their legs/feet/shoes? ...and then get yours in the shot? Even your turn-ups are getting excited!! Does your camera man now follow you to work as well, or was it a special occasion? It's good to see staff socialising after work... are only women invited to your shoe appreciation session???

(Tongue very firmly in cheek...)


What an odd reply; you need to get out more, dude.

I don't think much of that money will be reaching Sydney. However, if you are referring to another type of "stimulus package" you may be on to something.

These arrived in the mail today. I know they have been photographed to death however I am quite happy with them and this is my take. The color is very nice.

Well, now truly does the title of this thread make sense to amateurs.

I like a derby like this with punching on the facing/around the rear.

Not keen on the last. Stretches the shoe out. Loss of elegance. An inch off the toe cap and a bit of rounding would do wonders. The colour is lovely though. Best thing about them.

A chap I work with has a pair of shoes which are completely pointed at the end and look like womens' shoes. He only needs to pop on a stiletto heel and he's there. Silly chap.

Perhaps we detect in the changing shape of the last the subconcious desire of men to catch the eye of women in the workplace? Perhaps this is to do with the feminisation of culture? "Face" from the A-Team has important things to say on the subject. In the 1980s women dressed like men (power dressing, shoulder pads), today men dress like women, or dress as liberally as women. Dress code gone, suit in the cupboard: wear shoes like them, catch their eye.

These days I do feel the urge to kick once of those teenagers who wear his trousers round his thighs, his underpants sticking out, ***********! I hestitate - in the UK I'd probably be knifed!
