magnificent 7; shoes

luk-cha · Sep 24, 2007

as we seem to get a lot of threads on shoes, i just wanted to add another.

7 pairs of shoes for 7 days could you, if so what?

it is not easy, as i know i dont have a suade or a monk or a loafer here but i just have not seen any that take my fancy. so i am hopy for some inspiration from you guys

so lets see your seven sins

now i would do this with a short wing tip and without the heel counter

and this pic it is the brown pair on the right!

Here are seven (including a monk & suede for you) but I do have a pair in the works that perhaps will replace one of these.

The Cleverley suede bal's are stunning!

Those are some gorgeous shoes. How about adding a caption next to each so we (i.e. the newcomers) know what they are? Thanks!

Thank you. These seven all happen to be from the folks at Cleverley. They are (from top to bottom):

1. an antique chestnut Adelaide oxford shoe
2. a brown buckskin Balmoral (galosh-type) oxford
3. a black calf stitched toe oxford shoe
4. a burnished London tan full brogue with thistle medallion
5. a black calf quarter brogue oxford shoe
6. an antique chestnut single-eyelet monkstrap shoe
7. a chocolate brown cap toe oxford shoe

The brown shoes look unworn. Maybe you should give them a good home.

I'd have to double check but I believe they were made from me in the late 1980's or early 1990's! Believe me, they have seen their share of pavements...and are a pretty good testament to how well made and well cared for shoes can last a very long time.

Those cuban-type heels, like in the first pic, have no place in men's shoes.

2 and 5 are EG, probably a smidgen over 1K
3 is G&G, probably $1500

Pretty sure 3 & 4 are both G&G bespoke, north of $3K.

I guess you really need to be well heeled to own them. Get it, get it???????
