I tend to take my wedge sole indys on a trip where I might be on my feet a lot and walking a ton. Always comfy and just fine for traction.

This what I’m excited about. After much appreciated advice from @Shawnc, I finally dipped my toes into the LHS pool. (Pun intended.) Lol! Might I say, why have I waited so long! The Van last fits so comfortably snug, this is definitely going to become a problem. Lol!

Superb!

I’m glad they fit you well. In my case, these whetted my appetite for more LHS variants.

Thank you Sir! I definitely am looking forward to getting more in the stable. Whiskey and Colour 4 are my absolute grails.

It has been a while gentlemen and hope all are doing well. I have a few recent acquisitions I wanted to share with the group.

First up are navy suede handsewn Venetian loafers from Voltaire. I was in Philly several weeks back for work and had to make it out to his shop for a visit. Voltaire is a great guy, has a great shop, and great Alden (as well as other brands) makeups. I couldn’t walk out the door without making a purchase.

Second up and not to be outdone are the cigar tankers from TSM. These are dark but consistent with current cigar coloring and definitely distinguishable from my 8’s. This makeup was a grail for me when I entered the game so the inconsistencies in the finish aren’t enough to deter my excitement.

I hate to admit it but I was in GS shoes all day today, and they are a good shoe.

IKR - amazing value for the quality of footwear!

Two really cool scores @GGMac. Congrats.

Finally get these Ravello wings out for their true maiden voyage……..

Didn’t realize how long it’s been since I’ve owned longwings. Man, these things are beefy……

Happy Friday-eve Gents!
