Deals Around the Net: Open Thread

[Fred G. Unn]

Perhaps the tie width discussion deserves its own thread at this point?

+1. Maybe a mod could take all these tie posts out of here and start a tie discussion thread.

I was thinking the same thing.

My prediction: the narrower lapels and ties may go out of fashion soon,

That's the reason I won't buy anymore Ludlow jackets and such at the moment even if I see a great deal on one. The last thing I want is to be stuck with a bunch of thin lapel jackets if they truly go out of style.

Yeah but buying ludlows won't leave you stuck with truly unwearable suits right away. Even if they "go out of style" they won't look weird for another couple years

I'd guess that the Ludlow look will be stylish (perhaps not fashionable, though) until the 2020 decade.

Anybody else anxiously awaiting the MLK day sales? I am hoping there will be some good deals on AE Daltons or Wolverines.

the last line of the description says they do (I know a personal experience is better, but at least that's something if no one has experience)

Do you know how it compares to AE 5 last or alden barrie sizing in length? I've always worn laceups and never actually bought loafers. I usually buy a 9 in most dress shoes across all brands since I am too lazy to find my exact size for each brand, and because a half size too big doesn't really bother me. However, since there are no laces, should I buy an 8.5 which usually fits a little tight in some brands to compensate. Won't they stretch a little anyway? What do you think?

Looks like they restocked on sizes. I ordered these last week and they're scheduled to be delivered Thursday. I can give an update on the sizing then. It said they fit TTS so I ordered my standard size 9.

can the quoddy soles be resolable? It does not said if it has Good year welt or not.

anyone own any shoes by Shipley and Halmos? Their reed ankle boots could be a good replacement for the chelsea boots for $167.00. Wonder how is the quality of the leather and if it's GYW. I google Shipley and Halmos boots, but did not find any reviews or real life pictures.

Taken directly from the quoddy website.

A Quoddy shoe adapts to you and your foot rather than forcing you to accommodate it. It has a natural feel; you are connected to your walking surface, connected to the earth. Even the soles are designed to promote this; they are stitched to the shoe bottom rather than glued so that they maintain flexibility and can be infinitely replaced.
