casual on Friday

must be a pretty conservative work environment, if this is casual friday.

lovely colours, very nice suit, however the sleeve looks like it underwent some liposuction

Nice suit and shoes, IST but is this really MC casual?

This is what I'm looking for, for a winter boot. Nice. In cigar shell would be even better. : )

Does it have to be cordovan?
I might have some suggestions.

Anyway, someone mentioned a moto and boots.
Sleeves are a tad long, dunno if I can get that altered.

I do like the look of several of the Wolverine and Red Wing boots but I didn't know if they were considered "attractive." I prefer some kind of toe detail as I find plain toes kind of, well, boring. I only really like them on monk strap shoes or bucks in the summer. To be clear, I don't need the boots for any interviews, I have that covered, I am mostly looking for something that can go with my flannels when I wear my odd jackets in the fall/winter and my jean and chino casual fits. I wouldn't wear brogue boots with a tshirt and jeans but I guess I could look into the cheaper wolverine or red wings for a plain toe or cap toe boot I like for the more casual line up.
The rancourt loafers are growing on me and with a BB discount and a few reward cards I have, the price wouldn't be too bad.

I like the Alden LWBs, but it's interesting that you are weighing them against the Larchmont because you prefer the sleeker look to the MacNeil. Personally I feel that sleeker wings look much more formal and thus I prefer them as oxfords, which then means they look wrong (to my eye) with casual fits. All that to say, I vote Alden (although I own, and love, AE MacNeil).
As for loafers, pennies are great, but despite the apparent hatred they receive from many on SF, I love tassel loafers. I saw that Nordstrom has a very nice deal on some, admittedly not particularly versatile, suede ones (http://bit.ly/OsSSFa) which have a Cleverly look about them.

SB I like those wolverine boots alot! Can anyone comment on the quality of wolverine uppers? Goodyear welt = good, is the leather comparable to AE or similar lines? Thanks

I tried to dress like T1 today.

Crockett-n-Jawnz tassle loafers not quite as swanky as cheetah mocs. but I've got Pitti hair.

Diggin' the hair my brother...I'm on that path myself as well...tired of dicking around with a cut every four weeks!
