I got my PS bihars for $400 after customs fees. Try milanclothing.com (10% code in the PS thread somewhere) or https://www.julesb.co.uk/ (twit1 for 10% off) --not much stock left at either of those stores, 7/9/10UK and these run a size big. F&B shoes, here is one example http://www.gimmeshoes.com/product_in...oducts_id=1535 just look around they have a few styles to choice from.

i also have Boo x sperry boots that i didnt put in this pic

Nice shoes, I wish I had a nice collection like yours, but am I missing something? I thought this thread was about non tennis shoes and non-business shoes. Do you wear your AEs with jeans?

Not trying to be insulting, I was looking for ideas on how to upgrade my non-work attire but a lot of people here are listing some pretty nice shoes, so I am a little confused.

i wear my wingtips with jeans pretty regularly.

Doctor · Nov 8, 2009

I wear wingtips with jeans often. I also have a pair identical to the pair on the front left of the last pic there (though they're Aldens) which I wear similarly.

Look in the WAYWT thread - shoes like that can look great with jeans. Braidkid regularly pulls off the look to perfection.

recommend me some wholecut shoes. I love how simple they look.

how much would a resole be? i have redwing engineer boots with a crepe sole, but i want a traditional engineer sole. anyone have an estimate of how much that would cost?

I want to buy a pair of Allen Edmonds Mccllain wingtip to pair with jeans. Is it too narrow to wear with jeans?

Bought these 15+years ago when in highschool and just rediscovered them at my parents house. In decent shape and still have original laces. I must not have worn them much. Any suggestions on how to buff them out to look their best? Trying to decide if I can still pull them off in my 30's.

^take to salvation army, they look hideous to me.

ha ha. I have some Docs boots I bought about 16 years ago that I loved at the time, and they're still in my closet. But I haven't worn them in about 14 years. Some things are hard to let go of.

What type of boot would be recommended for someone with narrow feet? I tried on some Grenson's that were on sale at Holt and I loved the look, they were just way too wide (D). It seems that most companies just make the standard D... or am I just not looking enough?

Crockett and Jones Chukkas. They are flippin' awesome and I curse the fact that they only come in a narrow width. You can see here that they only come in an English D fitting (English E=US D.) I think they are around $360 shipped or so. Go for the snuff suede and they will look fantastic with jeans.

Blynch...................you're right, looking at those pictures made me realize I should have left them at my parents. Its funny, in real life they seemed to look better. Probably just nostalgia kicking in. Or maybe I was thinking they're so ugly their kind of cool. Anyway, thanks for the bluntness.

cheers

I disagree. He needs to burn them. If he donated them, there is a possibility someone may actually purchase them a second time and continue those shoes horrid existence. It's the shoe equivalent of having unprotected sex with someone when you know you're burning; it's just not morally right.
