9.5d indy boot

9d in white's semi dress

10 vans authentic

i have flat feet, and the semi dress fit better around the arch and toes than the indy. wondering if anyone else had the same sizing as me with these two shoes. i am ordering a pair of semi dress, and tried on a pair of 9.0 and they fit me very well, but it just seemed bizarre.

i agree. why are those a thing?

i tried one on at seny the other day. they're HUSKY as all hell. pretty rigid feel to them, slim arms and relatively well fitted body.

i don't know, but all that i can say is that they will grow on you if you let them. my suggestion is throw on a white tee, some suspenders with those JPs and you'll be looking cool all summer long!

i feel like hemming would be a bad idea. no mini cuff?

damn that horsehide is looking mighty deep, strong, and supple.

denim cpo from a while back. it's oki denim from sugarcane (almost 100% on that part).

what's the word with stronghold? these guys still doing anything?

edit: the answer is that they're still around, but a pair of hickory jawns is going for 325 now

does stronghold still exist to make me some hickory pants? if not, is there anyone doing that besides ooe? and yes, i know that i could buy real work pants, but i've got some money to burn.

that's not the point. they're saying that if you use the bathroom at that restaurant (for pay or as a customer of the restaurant), then don't fuck it up, do drugs, or fuck about in there. seems pretty reasonable to me.

small questions thread...... but samurai 710 or wahehouse 660 for slim straight no pocket design.

what's the sizing info for the buzz rickson goatskin gloves i saw in SENY last week? how do i measure what size i'd be?

it's the circumference of your knuckles. usually 7-8.5 i think, but it's measured in inches. just get a tape measure or string and measure your knuckles.

switch, i guess it was just about a year half about now. i lose track of time i guess! it's 2012, who the fuck knew?!

julians if you have the cash. why the fuck not? a lot of people have semi dress. be different!

just a lil roy thing to make everyone cringe. a few years ago my friend's mother saw his original roys on the ground in his room and threw them out because she saw a hole in the crotch. i was so upset. i introduced him to raw denim with those, and then after they were discarded, he gave up.

finally made a choice! http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/smaclo/item/p-whitessemidress/ i'm custom making these through Baker's! i hope the banks are open on monday so I can order these asap! they're black bison upper, black water buffalo toe vamp, single leather with vibram half sole, antique w/eyelets, brown stain, classic heel all on the standard last.

someone told me it was about 115 yesterday. not quite sure how reliable his info was since his store was selling SD for $100 over retail, but that what he said.

one question before i order my SD: has anyone had water buffalo, and is there a difference that is very palpable through casual wear, or is it just different grain and some harder break in?

i'm very upset about wanting other things. fucking shit. if i can get my funds up, i will give you a pm asap!

I've found that a lot of engineers need an extra hole on the instep strap for this exact reason. That alone can often fix the slippage problem.

maybe i was just being a wimp, but the instep strap wouldn't go any further and the unpleasant feeling on the top of my foot wasn't helping. maybe i'm just not used to rigid shoes since the last pair that i broke in was my indy over 2 years ago. the white's just felt so nice. the arch ease was extremely comfortable, even with my flat feet. either way, i don't think that i can afford a custom fitting from wesco, and i will probably get more wear from a pair of whites due to the fact that the boss would only fit under my 23oz jeans (probably not the best for 90+ degree summertime). maybe i could go back to that quirky little fetish shop and try on another pair with what you're saying in mind. and oh yeah, i was dressed in tight jeans tucked into a pair of 14" wescos with a perfecto on. even though it was weird, giggly and awkward, i had a blast!

today i went on a little adventure to nyc to try on a pair of wescos for sizing my custom narrows. when i got to the store to try them on, i realized that engineers aren't my thing . i don't think that i can ever get over the heel slippage (maybe the sizing was fucked up, but either way, i didn't like them too much). on the other hand, i did find out that LOVE the whites and their archease system. i'm planning on ordering a pair of dark brown or cordovan (probably water buffalo) classic semi dress. PUMPED!

CRAYZ SIZING ON THIS POST!

the ostrich leather patch was a (self edge) collab and that store is not self edge. harder to get=more money.

where are these cushman's/ deluxeware found? i saw a cushman's and it looked super cool.

did you wash those about once a month or so?

is there a deal on alden anywhere?

put this on isn't working, not just the link. http://putthison.com/
