What would you wear these with? (Grey brogues)

El Jack · Nov 29, 2010

I'm curious about your thoughts on these grey suede & leather brogues. The price and quality is right, at $99 for Northamptonshire shoes that are Goodyear welted.

But what about the style? I'm thinking they may go well with chinos, jeans, linens on a casual level.

Style? What style? There may be some here that like those, but not my bag, man.

darker brown or navy (black too?) cords. possibly dark wash jeans, but i don't see those working well with lighter color jeans.

I'd wear these with cords too (slim fit), maybe even black cords and/or possibly dark grey pin-striped pants.
El Jack, who makes those? They are some of the nicer grey shoes I've seen in a long while.
Links too please if possible.

Suede and leather? It looks more like suede and plastic!

If they were suede and calf, rather than patent they'd be much nicer.

MoL, they're from ASOS in fact but I knew that would catch heat on this forum. Sold out unfortunately as well. http://www.asos.com//Asos-Collection...px?iid=1018911 I agree with most of you. The rest of the outfit would need to be subdued and of darker tones. It's also a shame they went with the patent leather, as the natural heel contrasts the suede enough, taking it over the top.

I would pass on them.

The patent leather kills it. But grey is nice with blue, heres a shot of my Hermes calfskin ones.

I'd wear them with this:

Flared jeans, or oxford bags with a big break. The important thing about those shoes is to cover them.

If they were paying you to TAKE them, the above would NOT be true....
