"Guys, who should I choose for the extremely difficult and important task of restoring my fine Aldrich-Edwings shoes? Surely not the manufacturer?"

Another chapter in the iGent Book of Allen-Edmonds Seconds Lore.

Aaaaand another AE recrafting question. One might entertain the heretical notion that these iGents could call the Great Allen-Edmonds Shoe Manufacturing Corporation to ask these very important questions. Of course Allen-Edmonds employees may not be familiar with the sacred iGent art of patina-making.

Down at the farm we call those "socks"

Morning inanity:

The Black Suit thread is STILL going, though at about quarter-steam. Andyite in Good Standing J. Marko has taken up Cuffers' torch and is now telling fresh-minted troll Grudge Match that black suits are "counter culture." The iGent view of what is and is not counter culture is so delightfully square and retro, like they're still getting over the revolutionary excesses of the Beatles.

Anatomical inanity in a thread that spends more words than anyone ever should talking about Charles Tyrwhitt shirts.

Pinky gathers the trads together to celebrate the coming of winter - sheep frozen upon the meadow, the shriek of wind, the choking muffle of the snowstorm, and SWEATER TIME!

An imbecilic thread on flip-flops becomes an imbecilic thread on armpit fetishism.

"How do I wear jackets?" Jesus Christ people, a Barbour jacket is a fucking RAINCOAT. Even if you use your obsessive engineer nerd abilities to fine-tune the size it's going to look like a Barbour when you wear it. This is a garment that English farmers wear when they are birthing calves.

Pink and Green shows off a Stygian depth of sartorial knowledge; the Earle responds with a picture of some fine curb-stomping boots.
