AndyTrads, led by the tradliest trad in the tradosphere young Drip, renowned member of the New York Design Community, (Greenwich CT Merchants Branch) discover Belgians! Hang on, here we goooooooooooooo...!

They're so cool! "Jack" Rubinacci wears them! Flusser wears them! That asshole from DC with a blog wears them! Belgians wear them! (Well, some do, but only when they're pushing their bikes up the Mur de Huy.) Quick, have the Topys installed before they wear out, get a jar of the special Belgian Creme de Merckx, four coats to condition them before you set foot outside, get the adhesive tongue pads affixed, leave good feedback even though the seller wouldn't take them back, and you're good to go.

lt's still good that this thread is always close to the top of the list. lt's always good to rub people's noses in the dirt to keep people on their toes.
Serious?
I would consider at least two pocket squares, to let your potential employer know that you mean business, but you're not desperate. What kind of wallet chain will you be wearing?
In inanity news:
http://www.askandyaboutclothes.com/forum/showthread.php?113948-The-Shoe-Tree-Myth
An Australian asks Andyland whether shoe trees actually do anything or not. With all the hysteria of a CAIR representative talking about the Fort Hood massacre the Andymen respond that SHOE TREES are to MAINTAIN THE SHAPE OF THE SHOES, and they IMPART A DELIGHTFUL CEDARY ODOR and DRIP SHITLOADS OF ANTISEPTIC CEDAR OIL EVERYWHERE and ABSORB UP TO A QUART OF FOOT SWEAT and so on. Andy cites his own encyclopedia (which says "always use shoe trees because they are good for the shoes") as an authoritative end to the discussion. No one apparently has any actual proof that they do anything. Everyone believes that cedar possesses properties that violate the laws of physics and vegetodynamics.

The always repulsive Chouan can't get a straight answer about "New England Shoes." This is like Andyland's version of Who's on First, and like the original it makes me want to shoot myself in the face.

Piccioccocococooc, who made his Andyland debut asking after the quality of "Eton" clothing, returns to ask how people feel about Gant, home of the $300 made in China rugby shirt (it's rising Andyland superstarn and Scandinavian jag-off Bjorn's favorite brand, for your information).

This is just impossibly lame and I won't repeat or summarize it.
