Quote: Those shell Strands look amazing...

Just when I think a sexier shoe exists (ignore TT's shell posts) I wear these and all is right in the world. For the record I'm going with oil tycoon.

I think TexasTexter's name is a clue - the alliteration.

He is secretly a certain "JJ" who happens to own and run a very successful NFL franchise.

Anyone have a pair of the Yorktown in Oxblood? Opinions?
I could use another blucher and these caught my eye.

TIA

Wore my Brogue Suede Strands today.



Think these might have been the first A-E shoes to come with Danite soles.

A-E no longer uses the color name "Brogue", probably because it created some confusion.

(Since someone always asks when I post picture wearing these trousers, they have embroidered game birds and guns on them.)

Does anyone have the MD Chukka yet besides the few that posted?

Are there only a few who ordered them? I've been in hiding from this thread since the Massdrop order (maybe a little before) because I have been buying too many shoes lately. I realized that staying away from the thread wasn't helping as I still bought a pair or Sandman slippers and Addison loafers.

I got my MD Chukkas about two weeks ago. I opened the outer box and then decided to leave it at that until Christmas. I'm going to wrap them up and that'll be my present to me from my three year old on Christmas Day. Crazy, I know, but it'll be exciting to open shoes on Christmas morning. Disappointing, I guess, if they don't fit or if there's a major flaw!

So THAT is why he loves blue and grey (no silver shoes)!

Let me say, the MD chukkas are probably one of the most comfortable shoes I've worn

It feels like wearing a soft glove over your feet

Good thinking! Love it. Please make sure to post pictures.

Normandy is usually reserved for getting wet/dirty. The Shakers and LBs only make appearances in late fall/winter. The rest get worn anytime outside of July-August, when I wear no-show socks or go sockless.

Nothing can compete with those Natural Welt Daltons! So envious!

Thanks, TT. Those 2 new shell pickups are pretty nice themselves.

Not as nice as those Daltons!

Aside from my excitement of unexpectedly finding the Harrison this weekend, I had my eyes on a pair of Easton's for about 6 months or longer. These were on Ebay in my size and the seller reduced the price. Did not plan to buy two shoes this last week, but I felt like I had no choice on the Harrison, as that train is not coming around again. Anyway, tried on the Easton and the feel great. Very roomy in the toe area and snug in the heel (just how I like it). My only AE shoe that has the size listed not on the tongue, these are older than the rest of my shoes. I am sucker for plain-toe shoes, and these were priced to sell. I was also worried because these had the black insole, but it does not feel rock hard like I feared. Anyway, these aren't really anything special (like Texas's posts above), but I thought I would share because you don't see these very often. The 000 last is unique.

Only took 1 pic but I'm loving the snuff color
