Looking for some nice smart casual shoe. Budget is 150 and below. Can I get any good looking and quality shoes at this price? Was considering Sperrys..

I bought a pair of Sperry Topsiders for $149 but I have to say they are unlikely to last very long. Mine is only six months old and look like they are 5 years old. And I am someone who don't trash my shoes so that is saying something about their durability.

Maybe you will have better luck with Sebago or Timberland but I can't be sure as I haven't tried them. Hope this helps somewhat with your decision.

any idea where can i get shoes that look like this? thx for the help

Hi Xiaoyuer, do you have an estimated budget? And do you prefer to get it locally in a retail shop or don't mind shipping in from overseas?

I saw a pair of Mr Hare at Surrender which is pretty similar to the link you provided. AUGUST

However I believe it is cheaper to ship them in from mrporter.com if you don't mind not being able to try the sizing beforehand.

On the cheaper (relatively speaking) end of things, there is a pair of Barker Shoes at Robinson's City Hall that looks like the Rachel Comey. Not sure if it is still available, you can drop by and check it out.

Last but not least, I saw this shoe brand called Dutch Courage at Editors' Market which is selling for $129 and looks pretty cool.

Hope this helps.

You are most welcome. I forgot to mention you can drop by K.I.N at haji lane to check out their Grenson collection and Leftfoot Entrepôt (at The Cathay) for their Mark McNairy new season 2012. Look for Felix, he is a really knowledgable and friendly guy who is usually at the Leftfoot Entrepôt.

Do update us on your new kicks when you get it. Happy Shopping :)

would you please stop posting ur diamond walker crap

Dude... you're very rude. I don't know you and you don't know me. You seem to be policing all the shoes thread, what gives you the right to stop others talking about other shoes besides those brands you seem to tout. Are you paid by them to put down all the other brands?? Grow up and butt out. I like shoes like any other user here... and I've been in HWZ longer than you have. You act like a kiddish thug, how old are you seriously.

Ah the wonders of the search function! :D

I see you 'advertising' for loakes, EG, kiton and Crockett and putting down gucci, LV, hermes shoes... corthay shoes and now Diamond Walker shoes. :s8:

Quite the shoe snob you are... calling these crap. Anyway... pot calling kettle black is so typical of keyboard warriors like you. :s22:

Anyway I like Prada and Bally shoes too... i can also post photos and links but please don't accuse me of advertising for them too! :D:s8:

Grow up, please.

Because nobody appreciates ppl coming in and posting their imaginary frens' shop.

At the very least, if a seller wants to plug his stuff here, be upfront and say so. Although if the dude keeps repeating himself he'll just get bashed as well.

I prefer moonwalker boots myself.

Another place to check out at CBD area is at Reebonz Space, Level 7 Clifford Centre. Near office so I always pop in for lunchtime shopping. They got Todds, Prada, Gucci, Car Shoe - sneakers, loafers mostly. I saw a damn nice Prada boots about 70% off but still at $1200. Limited sizes.

> To a certain loony football coach: I think I also own this shop! Wahahahaa! :s12:
