It's a splash pattern, the khaki pair looked better, but it fits in the same as the rain-patterned shirts

Correct on the no clearance returns. My track record with yoox is pretty horrendous in terms of kept vs. returned, so maybe it would be best not to chance it.

Speaking of creepers, has anyone seen people actually wearing those garish Prada ones? I remember reading a couple articles saying how boutiques cannot keep them in stock as they sell so fast (HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE

Love them, was thinking hard about pre-ordering them from Seven.

They make a non-brogue version, good luck finding it though!

It's true. I tried to get a pair from Costa Mesa, but all they had were the ****** Tobacco colored stuff. I had a chance to call up Beverly Hills, but I hate going up to LA, so I just let it go.

The black brogues popped up on the Prada e-store for a day or two after that, but they were half-a-size too large for me.

I'm interested in a vibram-soled oxford and trying to decide between the Oak Street Bootmakers' version I discovered on this forum and these Aldens.

Any one that owns either have advice? I'm looking for versatility (would like to wear to my casual office and on weekends) and for comfort while doing a fair amount of walking in the city. Thanks.
