Blue & white would work great with beige slacks.

Re: Spectator attack
I know jack shit about spectators, so forgive my stupid question, but what is the woven-looking material on some of these shoes, especially the ones in the above post? I reckon since they called "ventilated', it must be some kind of mesh or something, but what is it made of?
Some beautiful shoes in this thread.

Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Re: Spectator attack
those look fantastic meister.
you mentioned width of the shoe meister, do you or the other shoe buffs on here have a view on how to best figure out what width suits you best when there are several width fittings available when buying a shoe? shoe assistants have always advised me to buy a width of shoe which fits firmly around the foot on the assumption there will be some stretching of the leather, but I naturally like a little bit of looseness in the shoe. Is there a right and wrong way to judge best fit as you are sort of shooting a moving target in terms of the leather softening and stretching during wear.

Oooh, ooh, what is that toe style called? I believe I've seen it referred to as a U-wing or something?

Re: Spectator attack
My dream spec is the John Lobb prestige navy and white oxford wingtip (poor man's version of the real thing). l'm gonna get it one of these days too. l'll get an Anthony Cleverley black chisel captoe out of the way, get the J.L spec, get a JLP prestige burgundy half brohue oxford and then i'll concentrate on bespoke with the occasional sprinkling of Vass F lasts. We always need shoos so we might as well buy the best we can.
