Proper leather shoes

€270?!? My vibram soled Red Wings cost me £70, my other workboot type pair were $100... Am I missing something?

Redwrong is now the choice boot for bells that think they know a bit about Americana

You'd have to be some kind of tit to buy a brand new pair of them nowadays when they were only £120 8/9 years ago

Ok boys lets just clear a few things up. The link with that Euro price was just one of the first picture links Google images threw up, I didn't get them from wherever that is. A rise in price of £80 or so in nearly a decade ain't half as scary as it sounds, you should see what Sainsburys have done to cat food in half that time.

Americana ? Ain't that a song by Holly Johnson ? I quite like him. Couldn't give a hairy hoop for yank culture though, I also wear Kickers but ain't interested in the French neither.

But there are pictures on the internet of little Japanese guys wearing them with short pants and therefore THEY ARE BEYOND CRITICISM. And I am Northern and own a copy of Fac 1 so in law I am able to state that as TRUTH.

And back to the price, well my winter shoes are these and the Grenson Fred boot I bagged. Now that was at the sample sale so I wanders into Grenson the other day and asked them to find any imperfection. But there were nowt, absolutely perfect for £50.

Sometimes things are full price, sometimes things are piss curdlingly cheap.

And best bit is cause they are a bit red and bulbous side on in me coat and hat and bag I look a bit like Paddington Bear. Fuck yeah ! Yeehaw!

I like em'. But then I like melodic high energy house AND Frank Sidebottom.
