I like that they are future-boots, but the shape of the heel/wedge isn't a look that I go with, prob b/c I think it's not in proportion for me, but could be for someone else. I would see if they can be waterproofed, maybe?

FFM, I bought them in an actual store! Sorry to disappoint...
J - yeah, that aspect of them is good. I guess they're just not 'sleek', a bit athletic in the sole.
Orbit, they're supposed to be waterproof but also I have this spray (of the type that shoe stores flog all the time). Is it possible to get boots permanently waterproofed somehow?

Yeah, I love the Sorels for the walk to the bus when people haven't shovelled yet! These are similar to mine: http://www.shoptoit.ca/images/detail/82719000/82719779.jpg

I wear Bass saddle shoes now too...mine are tan with a rich navy color. Great for work casual with colorful socks. I don't have the nerve for black and white ones!

I got a pair of these for Christmas:

They're lovely, but I'm honestly a bit scared to wear them- they're the first really nice pair of shoes I've owned in a long time and I'm not sure how to keep from ruining them, aside from being religious about using a shoe tree.

I think one must have been a display since one shoe is slightly darker than the other.

Anyone got recommendations for inexpensive socks? Target are cheap but terrible, Walmart worse.

Okay! Especially if I can borrow those short boots you got a few months ago. Although NB I hardly ever spend money like that, I have to admit I just found those shoes for $200 less than the orig sticker price which is the only reason I did them.

My dream shoe wardrobe would be endless Roger Vivs and Ferragamo pumps tbh with a side of motorcycle boots. But a) I'm a cheap bastard and b) walking around destroys nice shoes.
― grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Friday, 18 January 2013 14:51 (thirteen years ago)
The shoes are here in size 7 and 7.5, and the difference is very slight and made up for by a light pair of knee socks. I might just keep both....

they look like common projects shoes? which I really like
I just had at least nine pairs of shoes and boots repaired & sole guards added, with the intention of saving money through not buying new shoes this fall/winter. $450 later.. I know this was necessary to keep a lot of my favorites from being totally ruined, but I sure would like to have bought some new shoes with that money. they did a good job saving most of them, but unfortunately polished the wood heels of my l.d. tuttle boots with dark brown, permanently staining the original medium grey color. (I think it's permanent? I can't figure out how to fix it without taking sandpaper to them which probably would damage them and not work anyway.)
