Yes, and discount code still applicable now. Take action before the offer stopped. :D


Am thinking of getting the AS suede chukka boot. :o

I just went over to AFPOS and upon payment page, it shows shipping fees (by RoyalMail - not tracked: 12 pounds).

I just tried, and it's true. I think it's only applicable for footwear.

:(

Nonetheless, even with the shipping fees(and packaging), it's still reasonably priced as compared to most local retailers here. Taking into consideration, the 20% discount code.

Hope to hear from a experienced dress shoe experts here.
I had wanted to buy a pari AE benton derby orthortics (678 last) shoe. had measure my feet with their shoe guide (had really measure with the true scaling). looks weird to me though.

AE shoe fit guide results:
Length - 9.5
Width - D (average)

I suppose I should have chosen 9.5D as the measurement goes.

I just had this doubt. My rockport shoe size or other brand dress shoes always fall within a US size 9 or below.

So may I know from your experience, should I go straight ahead and order a 9.5D from the AE website?

I had also emailed them since last week, but nobody respond.

Hope to hear some advice! Thanks!

Free international shipping doesn't applies to shoe care products.

No, I just realised it doesn't. I did took the advantage of getting some cream when buying a pair of shoes though.

Nevertheless, the 20% discount code is still applicable to shoe care products.

Yes, I'm aware of the shipping costs and that some local retailers sell Saphir products too, albeit rather marked-up prices. Oh, I forgot to mention that the purchase order includes a pair of shoes & matching belts too(a friend of mine), on top of my own order(a few bottles of cream & wax polishes). Appreciate your advice though! :)

Still ordering your tassel loafers? Hope they have your size in stock.

Yup, the 20% discount code is still applicable for shoe care products as well.

I had never been one to spend over $200 on a pair of shoes and in the past 30-something years I had managed to maintain the status quo less on one occasion.

This was the thread that got me started into the world of handmade British leather shoes and one that made me spent that amount on 4 more occasions in the last couple of years...

That said, my entry into this realm was filled was misfitted shoes which I am looking to get rid of on a cheap :s13: Like what some say, my loss your gain. I only have one pair of legs and only occasionally wear leathers to work (maybe once or twice a week) therefore after getting another pair of Loakes and Herring in the last 3 weeks, it is time for the occasionally-worn-misfitting pair of shoes to go.

Hope this will go to a good owner who appreciates the finer shoes in life (it ain't the finest certainly)

1st Pair - Loakes Design Recon UK 9

Asking for $120, occasionally worn.
UK9/Euro43.
Used but in great condition.
Shoe tree always in when shoe ain't worn.
Rubber added to leather sole - no danger of slipping during rainy day.
Leather protectant on shoe since day 1.

Cost more than $200 brand new, without rubber sole add on.

Please either PM me or sms me at 9 7 9 6 1 3 6 1 to deal.

PS: Apologies for the poor images, you might have a better idea of how the shoe look like with the below image (note that this is in black and mine is in tan)

hi anybody know where to get a reasonably price of shoe tree in local? thank you!

I bought 2 shoe trees from Taobao. Not sure about the quality as I'm not familiar with shoe trees. Feels solid, looks like wood and smells like cedar,thats about it. Total I paid 15SGD/pair inclusive of domestic/international shipping from 4px, conversions and all.
