    ^ That or Loake from Herring Shoes. Herring gives you a free shoe tree with a code which is floating around somewhere. Pediwear gives you a 15% off for all future Loakes for being part of the club. Both Herring and Pediwear send their shoes quite quick, 4 days for my previous orders. Well done...

    J FitzPatrick Appreciation Thread

    Nice looking soft chisel toes. An existing last I presume?

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    ^ It looked more like the toe was darkened deliberately? Interesting that the patina did that. Looks good.

    A Sam (and David) Hober Tie Appreciation Thread

    ^ Time to stay away! Good buys. I have an itch to get a grenadine very soon. Today's Hober, the navy diamond weave (apologies for not having a jacket & bad picture - still figuring out how to snap oneself)

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    Very nice on the burgundy! It is a most versatile colour, along with oxblood. I am sure I do not have symmetrical feet however . In fact the right is up to half a size larger than the left and I didn't realise my instep would be considered high either. Makes me wonder really as only my spanish...

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    Thank you all for your observations. It is most likely the leather itself (being not the best piece chosen when making that particular area) but with Meermins at the price point that they were (before the recent hike), still represented great value.@DWFII could very well be right too on fit as...

    Herring has belts too... happy shopping Their 20% discount just lapsed a week ago. But I recall seeing another 10% still active. I think it's TWEET10 but check their twitter site to be sure.

    Strange creasing

    Is there much space between the top of your foot and the uppers? Creases get more pronounced with excessive space (it's a function of the fit not being good in that area). Are your other shoes capped and on the same last/fit? This being capless would also be another factor.

    X-POST from Carmina. Thanks Skoak! They broke in really well and very fast too!

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    Hi all. These are my Meermin LMs museum calf. Anyone would have any idea on alleviating the interesting creases/striations on one side of the quarters? (it's only on one shoe). A buff with Saphir Renovateur perhaps? They don't appear to be cracks however. From memory, they may been present from...

    +1 to the Strand. Burgundy or Brown would work equally well doing double duty, especially with formal grey/charcoal pants or even dark denim blue jeans for casual Friday. Being a semi-brogue, it would have enough pizazz to be both formal and casual depending on your dress. A full wingtip would...

    +1. 4-5 days for me. This was via DHL which has less pit stops than Fedex or UPS.

    Why all the hate for wholecuts?

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... that's what medallions are for - to distract from the 'scar'. A wholecut with a medallion makes it more interesting and gives any pair of interested eyes a focal point to look at.

    Oh wow... wouldn't have imagined it but what a shame if it is. The website was still up when I looked however. That's good to hear. Sorry mate if I was preaching but when you said 'Aunty' my mind kinda went into a hole . I would take Loake 1880 over RMW for general better build quality and...
