Clarks came out with a new Buck/Oxford type shoe, I'm pretty sure. Check em out if you can find them.

[redX]

if you cop the khans tell me how you sized, would like to cop too but not w/o trying them on first

[Spaghettini]

or

also, anyone own a pair of these? comfortable? narrow, wide etc?

[halomunkey]

^I used to own the APCs, they were comfortable as fuck.

[ninetynine]

I tried on a pair in grey today, they run like regular all courts so a little narrow.

I say go with the grey...

[what no]

I use black ones as beaters, I'm perfectly satisfied with them.

edit: this is what they look like after about 7 months:

[gettoasty]

info on where to purchase the last two posted BLUE sneakers? (nike and generic surplus) thanks

spaghetti: get the blue ones and swap out laces ? other color too dull/plain. might as well get some nicer white sneakers and beat them up nicely over time

[Carl]

Should I bite the bullet and get these:

Or should I wait and get what I've been after all along (albiet in a different color...something more along the lines of the first pair):

????

*le sigh*

[house]

the 2nd pair are really nice

[sawn-off chef]

OR

The Blue One.

I'M SO FUCKING TORN.

Aware of the Samba stigma, but I still can't justify/afford some nice Gats or CP's for casual white shoes.

How look these Sambas?

[lintmunro]

They're not bad, but I paid $70 for my GATs (non-replicas) and I doubt a ten dollar difference is anything major.

i'm a size 9/9.5 in US sizes and bought UK 8(US 8.5) khan IIs and they fit perfectly. go a full to half size down at least

[sunkenshoes]

need a some lighter jacket for upcoming summer. yes or fuck no?

[what no]

A jacket that length would look awkward in summer IMO.

[Manx]

Yeah, only the homeless would wear that in the summer.

[Advantage]

@ke1

One can never go wrong with a classic pair of sambas

i agree about the jacket. if you do decide to get it, accessorize with a brown paper bag.

Doc Martens 1461 in Black or Black Nappa.

At first sight, straight black looks too shiny and plastic-like, whereas Nappa is more subdued. Will the reg. black lose its shine and age nicer than the Nappa? t.i.a

did you end up deciding which color to go for? any thoughts?

[boy better know]

$235, oxford cloth jacket

did you end up deciding which color to go for? any thoughts?

Hey, I just received my shiny black ones today and I've got to say I'm pretty pleased with them. The shine isn't as glossy as I had imagined, and when they get worn in and beat up, I'll somewhat have the best of both worlds. Gotta say though, the yellow stitching and fat sole is somewhat off-putting. Might end up spray painting it black ala Patrik Ervell.

[broneck]

need a some lighter jacket for upcoming summer. yes or fuck no?

i may be alone here, but i think this could work. obviously not zipped up to your nose, but as long as it's not blazing hot out i think it'd be a good early summer look.

[DJ_Flame]

Need something to replace my old stan smith vintage:

[Advantage]

Purr

I think the leopard detail is cool. go for it
