Outfit of the day:
Canali travel blazer (2B SB patch pockets, navy)
Cream-yellowish PRL slim chino
Navy/white large Gingham check PRL button down
no pocket square
Brand new Pantherella navy socks
AND: my wonderful chestnut-cognac coloured Belgraves.
The C&J Belgrave are by far the most versatile AND "value for money" model of their range:
- Handgrade means lots of nice details, very refined
- Toe cap = simplicity, little brogueing detail = sweet
- 500 GBP still ok, not over the top
- 337 last: very elegant but not too showy or "Italian" (what brits and yanks believe is "Italian", i.e. pointy)
When buying Belgraves, makes sure they show you at least 2 or 3 different pairs, as their "Chestnut" colour can vary wildly.

Of the 3 different C & Js you've posted these are by far my favourites.

They are really, really good - they look "gentlemanly" without being overly fussy or feminine.
Aye, can't fault them.
Oh, and the colour.....all iGents would die for this...if only they could polish their weird wannabe shoes to this effect.
