With those rolls and creases, I'm sad to say they might be corrected grain. I'm far from an expert though, just basing this inference on similar pictures I've seen online.

But whatever their material, they have a good shape, and you paid just $12.50 for them, so no harm done. They're a nice piece to add to your wardrobe.

They're definitely a good shoe to have and they got tons of compliments on first wear, so no harm done for sure.

good eye, agreed that it is "polished cobbler" which is AE's corrected grain

What coupon? That's a pretty good deal it seems.

Probably going to purchase this Filson original briefcase in the new "Heavy Tin" tonight. Any negatives? Speak now or forever hold your words!

Keep your papers in folders until the oil/wax has been absorbed, but otherwise beat that thing up because it will only get more gorgeous with age.

[mcadamsandwich]

Damn. Sold out online before I could buy it.

been looking to buy a pair of suede PTB's for awhile now and even though I had my heart set on a pair of Alden's, I got these C&J's for a steal. can't wait to get them

http://www.landsend.com/products/men...appered&CJSID= Just grabbed these from Joe's post today. I plan to do them with a navy or tweed blazer, and a blue OCBD most of the time, but what else can I wear with them?

So maybe I'm late to the party but it looks like J.Crew Factory has finally standardized its pant fits with J.Crew. I just scooped up 5 pairs of pants in JCF's urban slim fit (Sutton) for $30 each with their current EXTRA25 code. 2 jeans, 2 chinos, 1 cord.

Recently bought some in that fit of the summerweight chino. Pretty happy with the fit. Only wish the thigh had a touch more room.

Nice! All things considered, C&J should be as good as Alden, or maybe even better, and you certainly can't beat the price as Aldens hardly ever go on sale. I hope you'll post some pictures when they arrive!
