Working Shoe for Young Exec

Anyway, what would you guys do if someone steps on your shoe?

Throw a hissy fit?

 

[BallGag]

Maybe he's really busy and dun have the time to fly overseas for fittings?

Everyone is reading too much into this. Maybe he just likes the damn shoes? We buy things because we like them, no point trying to find utility when it lies with the beholder. If I have a million bucks in my wallet and I want to eat KFC, I'm going to eat KFC because I damn well want to.

To be quite honest I choose to buy many pairs of shoes because
1) I like variety.
2) If the design catches my eye, I will buy it.
3 a) Carmina makes excellent shoes, and honestly, at that price point, there is no competition, not even close.
b) Carmina has a huge variety of designs, almost something for everyone, in my opinion.
4) As all_in_a_day rightfully mentioned, I would only do bespoke in person
5) To be quite honest, buying shoes, admiring them, polishing them, loving them, has a cathartic / therapeutic effect on me, and gives me respite from what is otherwise a pretty shitty period in my life.
So there

at the end of the day, like many of the bros here have said: do you like it? can you afford it? if yes, then buy and enjoy

I would shout "ouch". How about you?

Perhaps, but not the case for everyone. Case in point, i have regressed to wearing my AEs all the time after getting sick of babying the supposedly higher quality Vass shoes.

What is wrong with the Vass shoes? Can elaborate more?

Yah everyone is reading too much into it. Thundermarch has 20 over pairs of shoes. Me too. I have 25 pairs at last count. I also have a pair George Cleverley bespoke shoes. By bespoke, I mean my personal last, my personal design etc. Different from Diamond Walker's definition of "bespoke". Even though I have gone the bespoke route, I am still buying RTW or MTO.

I used to think the same. Polishing the shoes have me a good feeling. But nowadays I am just too lazy.

You may want to look at Corthay. It is available at Malmasion. I have the Arca.

I would stare at the offender, ask to see his watch, and then mock him for not investing in a dress watch before I head back to my parent's home and jack off to photographs of my TAG; already kept in a time capsule in the off chance that I find someone stupid enough to make children with me.

I used to stare at that person but nowadays I am used to it. But I will get very heart pain if I scratched it leaving a deep scar.

Yes since I already look like Gandalf(the grey) from all these years of living like a virgin hermit.

Long way to go .. ..

How does etedal's shoe fare for its price range?

Shoes are made in Vietnam and are relatively ok. Leather is calf but quality could be better (creases abit). Still, this is an issue most shoes around this price range bear since you get what you pay for. He's offering recrafts now, could be more favorable if redoing his own range compared to other brands lol.

If can wait for his sample sales even better.
