Talk me out of spending $295 on Hugo Boss shoes

I found an awesome pair of suede tassel loafers. The come in two colors, dark navy and grey. I would probably get the navy, but might get the grey. Both have white piping along where stitching normally is on shoes. It's hard to describe, but I searched for a long time to find a picture and I can't find it anywhere. I think they look great. I doubt they're goodyear welted, but they seem to be made well enough. I think the soles are rubber! They are made in Italy. There is no marking on the uppers that say Hugo Boss. They look sort of like the following picture, but in different colors, no side roping (whatever you want to call it) and has white piping is where the stitching is on the top. I want to buy them. They're $295. Talk me out of it.

they look nice. Buy 'em and then wear them with your favorite mabitex shorts

If they fit well, and you like the style, go for it. Who cares about brand names or being SF approved?

If you are short on cash then make a list of things that you need more to talk yourself out of it.

I'm not short on cash. It's just that they're Hugo Boss!

Maybe you shouldn't buy them. If you don't think HUGO BOSS is great then really why buy them?

I like those a lot.

Why? Its only when you get burnt eating dog crap that you know how great real Beluga Caviar is. So I say buy both pairs. And regret when you know you can get a good pair of EG for what you paid.

Oh **** that. They are nice shoes. Who cares about the brand. If I picked them up, I would just think fuckit, buy them. I am super fussy when it comes to items, but if it has eye candy, I can look over quality or brand reputation issues. Tell me where they are, I will join you in buying them. I dont like Boss all that much, but those shoes look **** hot, I dont care who makes them.

Yeah, I like them. There's no branding on the outside, so no one will really know. They remind of something that James would wear.

Anyway, Blue Sole Shoes in Philly has them. www.bluesoleshoes.com 215-496-9244. They only have one in each size, so 9.5s are mine. I'll probably pick them up tomorrow and poast pics.

Hmmm, Hold off a for 1 week, and if its still something you still fancy.. might be worth a more serious consideration.

Also, think of using that money for something bigger! (don't know what, but you can use your imagination!)

Not being rude - but are you over 60 ?
