    I want them to bring Gobi back, and I do like my natural Stirlings.

    I've been of the shoe loop (schloop?) for a while, but I am starting to think about replacing my Gobis. I wish AE would bring them back. My question is this: does AE provide something decent, these days? i kind of like the Cyrus, but I don't want any Nomads. Would I be better going to Alden...

    I'm not buying shell for anyone who wears polyester black pants!

    Haven't been here in a couple of years. Nice to be back. I have my brown Sea Islands on today, as it's still hot in Chicagoland. That's not the reason for my visit. I have a question--how do you tactfully explain to a man that black pants, and a colored shirt with same color tie, none of...

    I'll be around Tampa in September, but at the resort we're going to, I doubt I'll be wearing clothes, let alone shoes.

    First new pair in about 2-3 years. Picked up a pair of the Howard Suede in Dark Brown. I'm trying to go to the more casual that seems to be the norm in my office these days. I asked my daughter her opinion, and she said, "They look like 2019, and you're 1985!" I was on the fence, but I'm...

    Haven't been on this site in about a year, and haven't his the 2019 thread at all. Nothing new to report, but I'm curious to do some backreading and see what I may want to add in the next few months.

    For me, it's at least worth a call in the morning, before I walk five blocks at lunch to take advantage.

    The best dressed guy on the train always looks stylish. Nicely dressed, suit, or at least jacket and tie. He's good with colors, too. But today he is carrying two Aldo boxes. I'm thinking of slipping him an AE business card, just to bring his shoes up to the level of the rest of his clothes.

    I haven't made up my mind yet if boot weather is going to go away for these. I might keep these and the Daltons out to lengthen my Summer office rotation, which isn't as extensive as Winter.

    If you are wearing a blue/white seersucker, for the track, I would recommend a woven over the 1776, at this time of year. It implies the "trying to deal with the heat" look, without bringing the 4th of July into it. Second choice would be the Broadstreets, but that's just me. Don't do the...

    The difference is "old" Bourbon vs. "new" Bourbon. They changed the way they make that color a couple of years ago. My guess is that too many were being returned because of striping, or something, when that's the way they are supposed to look. I'm fortunate that mine are "old" but mine aren't...
