What shoes are you wearing today?

Thursday Boot Company Scouts in Dark Olive Suede. Waiting patiently for their flight.

I love the idea of dark olive suede, but how are those in real life? Are the toe and heel as heavily burnished as they look in Thursday's product photos? And are Thursday heels really as high as they look in the same photos?

Please please please take a picture wearing the Slav tuxedo (full Adidas track suit in black) and those shoes doing the Slav squat pose!!!

I don't have one in black but I'm likely to get one before we go. I have 2 more on my amazon wishlist, one of which is the tux.

Those are great! My black burgundy rambler Trumans I received last summer gave me blisters walking from Franklin BBQ (just east of I35 on 11th street in Austin) to Voodoo Doughnut (bout 1.25ish miles away or so on 6th street) after having worn them numerous times. That leather is CRAAAAAZY stiff and will probably need at least 2 years to be fully broken in. Granted that tells me they're gonna last AAAAAAAGES, but still....annoying to say the least (my kudu trumans were ready to go out of the box and are still fantastic, so i think the rambler leather is just SUPER stiff).

All that being said, these just arrived via Amazon today. I'm not wearing them all day, just had to get a preview snap of what Romania is in store for this summer.

Who knew they made shiny gold Stan Smiths? I didn't, but I'm glad they do.

I went with these wolverine 1,000 mile Chukka boots on sale for $209

These are beautiful. Great leather too!

Just did 5.5 miles of walking in them this morning without breaking them in.

My feet were good up until about 5.25 miles. But that last .25, I felt a blister coming on.

They look really nice and I’d say over five miles on the first day without breaking them in is pretty good.

hot diggity that's right on the way to Gettysburg from my house....

I'll let you know my final judgment when I get them. But he seems to be worth having your shoes restored if you've got some old ones that need work.

Those JR soles with the custom work are so beautiful I'm not sure I dare wear them.

Florsheim Royal Imperial from late 80's or 90's. Hard to pin down exactly.



BTW, gotta give credit to Sunny Yoo, who at somewhere around 30ish years of age, has already taken best in show at an international cobbler competition:

I know Dappered's sneaker tastes run more in the direction of the plain white minimalist models, but I'm a big fan of Tigers - snagged these on sale for ~$50:

But you're not wearing them.

Like!

Why don't they have a "like" button here?

If they did, I'd likely break it from over use here and the watch thread...
