I know Church's gets no love on SF. This thread is your chance to admit that you own and actually like Church's shoes.
Ok, I will go first. I have been on the forum for over a year now. I have ordered many Allen Edmonds and Ralph Lauren shoes online. I have grown to truly hate buying shoes online: the waiting, the sending them back, the waiting again. This weekend I decided to walk into a shoe store, try on shoes and leave with shoes that fit, even if it meant paying retail.
Thankfully, I did not have to resort to paying retail. The Church's, at Galleria Houston, actually had several styles on sale. I ended up with a Church's Consul, Custom Grade, black, cap toe on the 100 last in Nevada Leather. I needed another black cap toe.
I know some will say that there are better values out there, and that Church does use corrected grain leather on many of its offerings. Some will also say that since they were aquired by Prada, they are not the same. If you like Church's shoes please speak up, and add to this thread.
