I like to deploy my grey flannel trousers with light tan brogues - nice.
I love the way the Japanese don't bother messing about with vintage, they go ahead and remake absolute classic styles.
Even if we combine the ivy scenes in Europe and US, Japan is kicking our ass.
On saying that, I'm not sure about that gentleman's longwings.
What are you not sure about? they look great to my eye. They look to be cigar shell cordovan.
Shape. Specifically, they look a bit long. Or perhaps he's got thin feet.
I'm not an expert though.

I see what you mean, could be the angle of the shot. I'm the oposite, cursed with big feet, size 11, and some shoes can have a tendancy to look a bit clumpy on me.
They need to just get some proper photos on that blog they always looked squashed and at a weird angles, so it never does the outfits any justice.
My Flannels are about to wear out, any recommendations? Am willing to have them taken in, in all the necessary places a little if needs be obviously?
The O'C's flannels are definitely expensive pants. But when you slide them on and you feel the material and the way they fit, you realize there's really no alternative. You're stuck. I feel very lucky and I'm immensely grateful to whomever alerted me to that NOS pair in charcoal on ebay back months ago. I think they were $60.
I could always do the hat. Which rhymes with fat, now that I think about it.
