  1. i ordered some grenson albert a couple of weeks ago and had pretty much decided to send them back cos i wanted the money to spend on some new jeans. however, when they arrived i was pleasantly surprised at how nice they were and now i dont know whether to keep or return!

    Nice shoes. If you don't already have some wingtips, I would keep them, they look good.

    I find myself getting waaay more shoes than denim. I've pretty much sold off every pair of jeans I have except 4, and yet I have over 30 pairs of dress shoes. One of the main reasons is that its better for your shoes to rotate, while its better for your jeans to just keep wearing the same ones over and over.

  2. everybody likes sandwiches. anybody who says otherwise is in denial, or been eating subpar sandwiches.

    no other explanation.

    haha see. this is what white people think

    what's so great about bland bread surrounding cured meat with mayo on it? nothing haha

    even choosing from the bland american food canon, sandwiches are last on my list. I would rather have pasta, a steak, bbq, fries, fish and chips, and on and on.

    this is why this blog is comedy

  3. the regular Indys are really an inferior level compared to most Aldens. They are orthopedic construction with cheap cloth lining and rubber outsole. Look on ebay for vintage Tru-balance aldens and you will see what I am referring to. The higher price for the premium Aldens makes sense.

  4. Also, if you are one to wear through leather soles on a regular basis, it adds to the life of the shoe in the long, long-run to be replacing rubber instead of re-stitching leather.

    How many people here have worn a shoe all the way down from new, and then resoled them? I would bet zero, unless you are over 50 years old and lurking.

  5. I'm pretty sure Harrison Ford is not that short. He looks 6 footish. I've seen him on talk shows and he doesn't look like a midget next to Letterman, Leno, Conan, etc. I doubt he is wearing 5 inch heel lifts. Sounds like Alden ducktales to me. wtf

    Anyway, I have given up on the Forum Specials. the more I look at them, the more I like the plain composite soled RMs with the wide lip. The specials look too precious and delicate. I'm gonna get the plain ones, but I can't decide which toe I want...:confused:
