Shoes that look better with age...

[Opie]

what a great idea for a bar - it puts new meaning to gentleman's club, that's for sure.

the video is from http://garra.jp/style/tailored/index.html, there's also a great one for ironing, but that wouldn't be on thread topic at all..

Just to echo this link for all of you who didn't looked the first time.

This might be the greatest thing on the internet.

Some serious next level shit.

[Nicorice]

applied sno-seal to them. hopefully it'll even out over time.

[riff]

@ Nicorice - are those the Aldens?

[Nicorice]

nope they are brooks brothers.

[JackCrank]

Anyone have experience with putting cats paws on iron rangers? I feel like that'd be a nice combo.

[kiya]

That vintage55 RW model, how is that a collab?

They just picked different laces on an existing boot?

[lenn]

i guess so kiya. seems kinda strange to me too! the label inside even says 8130, the model number of the regular black boot. they didn't come in a different box, or even with an item from vintage55.

I'm really digging the low-top moc toe redwings:

Also, on a side note: I recently bought some White's semi-dress and they are the best fitting work boots I have owned so far. Highly recommend.

[itschrisb]

Those low tops look awesome

I really like those shoes too. It is just those god-awful soles that turn me off. I just can't stand them.

[Denim Phenom]

Those shoes look terrible.

Has anyone tried these Astorflex DBs? http://www.astorflex.it/prodotti/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=52

Cheaper than Clarks, and made in Italy. I'm kinda digging the moss green and antelope.

Echo this.

Trickers started this shit and now it is everywhere.

Are you talking about those low top redwings few posts up?

[cheapmuthafukr]

Echo this.

yeah... i cant believe that redwing is using that sole now. i guess they want to look like trickers huh?

[tvshooter]

on the boot, i agree, looks strange/don't like it. on the shoe. . .well, i kinda like it! i'd like to see it in person or broken in with a pair of jeans. i've seen worse. . .

[erk]

Echo this.

Trickers started this shit and now it is everywhere.

what did they start? That looks like a pretty traditional redwing shoe to me...however ugly it may be.

[opethrapture]

This is postdubbing with sno seal!!

[glimmertwins]

I have to agree - low cut shoes with rugged work style soles go together like peanut butter and KY brand jelly.

[Opie]

Haven't anyone told you that you have to use (10) when using sarcasm?

This is SuFu after all

Yes, Redwing was "first" with that sole, but Trickers was where some people started thinking:

"Hey, i would like a pair of otherwise sleek dress shoes, but with a huge fugly sole under it".

Granted, those Redwings there are luckily devoid of brogue and pastel colours.

Edit: That is one nice pair of boots, Opethrapture!

Details and maybe photos, please?

opeth what boots are those and where did you get them? They are gorgeous

[morse9443]

no way, I love crepe soles look and feel - probably stemming from so many years of Walllabees and Redwings.

I am all over these White's this spring.

great pics opeth
