At various points, those bluchers have been 160 and 140. Dunno if they'll go that low again.

By that time, my size will be gone... case in point are the BB sportscoats ... my size went like hotcakes after the recent markdown ... and I was holding out for a further reduction

Can anyone help me with what size I should go for if I'm UK 9.5 in AS?

So that's where the the brown plain toe went. I was looking for it but thought it was discontinued. All the better that its on clearance.

I own these. Its a very odd fitting last. They fit long and narrow.

I see the Paraboot suede Wingtips have been added which is a good value.

Good to know. But I didn't see anything exciting about the shoes offered at full retail on the BB website... imo the ones on clearance are better looking than most of the Peal shoes selling at near retail...

As for the other styles like their cordovan collection, that would be sweet if those went on a 70% clearance

The President of my company was wearing these double monks today. The ones that are on clearance at BB. I saw him in the elevator and noticed the shoes.... so then I took a close look and realized they were the shoes from BB. They looked pretty good on him... which is strange because i was thinking those shoes were ugly in pictures.

who makes those jodhpurs and how is the quality? I read they were made in romania in another thread I can't seem to find?

Search for a post titled something like "May 2009 Acquisitions" on AAAC if you would like close-ups of the shoes. Asking subjective questions does no good to help you decide if YOU will like the look or not.

Got some upclose pics from B&S actually, from someone selling a pair in 11.5D a week ago or so
