    WTT: Alden 9D Loafers for Chukkas

    Up for trade is the classic unlined Alden handsewn loafer in snuff suede, made on the Van last. These are pretty much new, worn a handful of times as evidenced in the photos, and come with original trees, bags and original box. Size: 9D. I'm looking to swap for a pair of the unlined Alden...

    Poor man's watch thread

    I was thinking about posting that Kent Wang watch here. Closest match to a Blue Spark currently out there? Looks like a nice watch but at 42mm it's a little too big for my taste/wrist.

    Poor man's watch thread

    Thanks, good suggestions. Some of those SARB models are really nice, especially the 031 and I'll have to give that one some thought. Same goes for the Orient Star line, but I haven't found one there that's really to my taste. I can't read Japanese, unfortunately. It occurred to me to try...

    Say you're dead-set on finding a Seiko SVCS013 Blue Spark—aside from Watchuseek, Timezone and eBay, anywhere else to look?

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

    Anyone care to diagnose some darkening on a pair of C&J for Ralph Lauren boots? I bought these on eBay and when they arrived last week, color seemed pretty even in most places (you can actually see the "before" pics here). First day wearing them, I was at the supermarket and someone knocked...

    Vachetta leather

    I'm a little confused—a Google search for this term turns up indications that this is "unfinished" leather that requires special care/caution. A while ago, I bought some Ralph Lauren bluchers on discount at Nordstrom Rack. The label says "dark brown soft vachetta." The uppers are very soft and...

    Self Edge SF/NY/LA/PDX/MX - Japanese Denim & Leather, Top Notch Basics, Very Nice Jewelry + Eyewear, & More

    I've been wearing a A.P.C. New Standards in 31 for a few months but have realized that they're a little too small for comfort, especially in the waist. Purchased a pair of 3sixteens (SL100x) in 33 but I think they're going back—waist is right but they're little too baggy and I'm afraid they'll...

    The streetwear shoes and boots thread...No sneakers please

    Love the profile of these. Anyone have thoughts on higher-end boots with leather or commando soles that have a similar look?

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    Hi guys, any suggestions for a boot with a similar profile, but without the broguing? Plain or captoe, leather or rubber sole. I'm looking for an everyday boot that's less chunky than an Indy.

    The streetwear shoes and boots thread...No sneakers please

    I'm having trouble finding the right simple, brown plaintoe boot. Willing to spend and/or hunt for preowned. Here's where I'm at: Lands' End Canvas Lace-up Boot: Loved the styling, not the quality. Corrected-grain leather developed the bad kind of wrinkles instantly, got an ugly gouge on a...
