Proper leather shoes

Thank you for the suggestions all, I'll look into the options.

...tailored shorts ...shirt tucked in, belt...

Good look. Don't think I could pull it off though.

Run me through the difference between canvas shoes and trainers…..?

Where do converse and palladium fit?

Price usually.

No garish colours, stacked heels, large logos and would look a twat at my age.

Converse, not since bought by Nike

Palladium, would wear .

ymmv

Scored an excellent discount on these. So comfortable. Any recommendations on a spray protector? I have this, which doesn’t say whether or not it should be used on suede.

New Rock boots?
Uncomfortable and hard to walk in .

From memory I think sapphire is the way to go

Yep this stuff is good. Get a suede brush too to help with cleaning. Also remember that you should spray them every few wears. And if it’s a long time between then always resorts

The stuff you have should be fine though tbf

May be surprising but have had these pair of Loake Brightons for just over 10 years now.

Rarely seen so many good colours in one photo. Top marks.

Niiiiice - are they the Solovair built ones? They look great! And colours as above 👌

Edit: no, they are not the solovair ones…

Always wondered what a ‘whole cut’ loafer might be - turns
Out the charity shop option was very ‘sheux’

Ooohhh…Where are they?

My Wolverine redwing ripoffs have some creases from wearing that have cracked/ eaten into the top of the leather a little. What's best to do to treat this?

No, no, no. £299.99, a saving of £490.01 on RRP, in this uncertain time of high inflation and political instability this is an opportunity to look a complete cunt on a modest budget.

DIBS! You don’t know how hard it is to find shoes for my freakishly long big toes.

Will have a pair of Lems Boulder Summit waterproof leather boots for sale soon, size 9, very little wear, should've sent em back, but you know how it goes, just a bit too big for me.
Will pop a classifieds up later.
