Australian Members - Part II - if you read the first post, you'll get what this is all about.

I've got to the stage where I'm close to stopping said human and pointing out the error of their (foot) ways. I know it'll make me look like a pretentious knob, but I'm not sure I can take it anymore.

Would Jesus do that?

Question:

If you could rid the the clothing world of one brand, what would it be?

I'd have to go for Aquila. Whilst I agree, there are more ostensibly awful and poorly-constructed offerings out there, I must admit to being utterly obsessed with hatred by those horrendous curly-pointy-toed, paper-thin-soled, scuffed, long-laced abominations of footwear.

I had the same impression but they look decent enough on the site: https://www.aquila.com.au/mens-shoes/business-shoes.html

He hated them so much he wore sandals.

Jesus would wear Birkenstocks, on the road to Emmaus.

Jesus would never wear Birkenstocks....probably Crocs.

I have recommended Alfred Sargent Exclusives multiple times before, as they are in my view the best value English made shoes in the market right now.

- Crust leather uppers with hand antiquing
- Oak Bark Channeled Leather sole
- low toe spring with narrow waist and tall heel
- lasted shoe trees
- Free shipping
- 20% off VAT
- 10% SF member discount

I helped to organise two GMTOs with AFPOS, hope us Aussies can benefit on different colour options on the Alfred Sargent Moore.

Anyone keen to get one of these and wants to split shipping? They're about 18 pounds for shipping.

I can’t believe people give Simon Crompton money.

@The J if you want a decent watch cap Berg and Berg have some nice ones on sale. I believe they’re made by Johnson’s as well I have one from them made by Johnson’s, that’s a beige cable knit, 100% cashmere. It’s survived many trips and hiking expeditions, especially where I nearly didn’t.

A few lads here have Johnson’s Donegal watch caps through @Henry Carter, they’ll attest to the quality.

 

[The J]

Each to their own. I like what he puts out, I pay for it. If you don't like it, that's fine as well.

What's wrong with SC?

 

[cemi1988]

most likely paying $150aud + vig for a beanie

What’s wrong with that?

 

[LonerMatt]

It's a lot of money for something that shouldn't cost that much money.

Isn’t that for @The J and the market to decide?
