WAYWT - Shoes/Boots Edition!

[Appfaff]

So, I live on an island, so sometimes easy footwear is required, but I always try to keep it classy.

I’ve always wanted the Alden suede penny loafers, but always directed those funds towards boots and jeans..

I’ve had my eyes on these Allen Edmonds Sea Island loafers for like 2 years, and they finally landed in my size on the clearance rack of my local store.

Perfect for me: water repellent suede - double layer leather sole, lamb skin lined interior, heavy waxed moccasin stitching.

I really like them, and they should fit well after a little stretch

I always envy the Japanese and how they wear the 50s “college attire” so well, so these will be my “cropped and cuffed” jeans and slacks smart shoes.

handsome shoes @Appfaff . Very nice.

[Appfaff]

Thanks @steelworker - AE is hit or miss on if I like their silhouettes and combo of materials (I feel they do it 100% right 10% of the time, and 60% right the other 90% lol) but I dig these and the color… might even throw some pennies in if I am feeling a bit wild

Perfect look for your neck of the woods, Adam.

Those loafers are SICK @Appfaff

Which island do you live on? One of the keys?

[Appfaff]

I guess not technically an island like the keys, but our stretch of land is surrounded by Gulf to the south and bay to the north - if I have to take a bridge to get on our off, I figure it’s an island haha

I’m in NW Florida (watercolor, seaside, Santa Rosa beach area)

Picked up some lightly used Flat Head Cordovan sneaks and added some GAH love:

Totally Boss @Clint_D - What denim are those?

[Clint_D]

Thanks Adam, they're the 555XHSib. It's finally in the 70's here in Austin so I can actually wear them comfortably again.

Wins all around!

Anyone have Wesco Packer lace to toe?

[Appfaff]

These are normal Packers (above)

Not sure I’ve ever seen a LTT version?

It's an option on the Wesco boot builder, seems like it could be interesting
