Good job, and welcome back!
Try and see if using an insert wouldn't help matters.


The issue with them running big is that (and excuse my lack of correct terms) on top of the foot in front of the lace, when you step...where that has broken in over the years kinda sharply hits me high up the metatarsals instead of down where the metatarsals/phalange joint is.... if that makes sense.

Though I will say in the 5 or so days I have worn them it seems to have gotten better..a bit...

Huge shout out to @impuntura for a sweet trade on that Gieves and Hawkes safari coat he posted a while back. Fits perfectly! :slayer: :slayer: :slayer:
Also a huge shout out to aging in rhythm for a trade that included a vintage PRL navy db blazer and also that kick ass vintage Helmut Lang parka! So cool!!! :nodding:
Also e-thrifted these the other day. Raf Simmons. Should pair nicely with the Lang.

You can also get little pads to stick on the upper parts of the shoe. Maybe try one of those until they conform to your foot shape. Shell does a pretty good job of that after some regular wear.

Daniel crom loro piana super 130 suit and staple Brooks brothers
400

Brooks Brothers silk coat
400

Brooks Brothers 3/2 navy blazer
400

Nudie jeans

A few other Tommy/polo/nautica items but nothing worth photographing now.

Happy to be out of Kentucky. It was a grind to hit 12 stores and most were just ****.
