With OC, Rachel Comey, B Store etc type shoes, you're paying for styling which I think is worth it if you can find for a price you're comfortable with.
Thats interesting, someone said they were really good quality, must of had me fooled! I originally wanted to grab a pair, well see, you may have changed my mind. I suppose i could look on ebay or something ha O,.. and Mr. Moo. I like the thick knits at the moment, depends what you wore with it. How much? mark

Mark, it's $250. I'd wear it with jeans, I guess. Maybe some flannel pants as well. Just don't know if chunky knits make people look chunkier...

My pair of Opening Ceremonys aren't terrible, but nothing amazing either. The leather is pretty thin and the finish looks somewhat cheap. The soles don't seem that great either. If I wear (any) socks with them they rub the skin on top of my big toe (as a result of bending there).

I want this wool Haversack sweater from Yahoo Japan auctions, but with proxy fees, etc, it comes close to $200

sweater is beautiful, if you can afford it then buy it.

dunkin · Dec 23, 2009

I love that duffel. Man, if only it wasn't full-length. It's purty at that price too.

That's hot ****, Zissou. Totally seems like your speed. Grab that pronto and get me one for xmas too, will ya?

Okay, my first time buying Johnston Murphy. Need a moderate work and walking shoe for the city. Looking at this one. Price is excellent. How's the quality for 99 clams?

brad-t · Dec 23, 2009

that is hideous but your taste in shoes is always pretty bad (should i just grade this one myself?)

zissou · Dec 23, 2009

Ok, I've sent a message to Sutocorp, and am awaiting reply. It's crazy, though, how short the Yahoo jp auctions are. Most I've seen are 2 days. That's barely enough time to proxy.

DLester · Dec 23, 2009

do not like J&M shoe

brad-t · Dec 23, 2009

zissou, get a proxy that allows you to bid yourself

zissou · Dec 23, 2009

can you recommend one? How exactly does that work?
