There still is nothing better for the beach than flip flops...

Yes... But so far I have not come to the attention of the British Transport Police...😀

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
/\ Chief did you actually see somebody on the train wearing Tretorns with taslan laces or is that your own leg? because Tretorns with Taslan is one crazy mash-up, conceptually .....

Haha!
Was thinking of a 90's undercut next, Bop.
Yes Stan, those are my pins and on the end of those pins I am wearing Tretorns with boot laces!

The all-whiteness bugged me. Plus I get an extra season out of them with those laces... Yes I heard myself say that and a little puke came up in my mouth.

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
I saw sandals in the 'Hip Store' on Tuesday morning and quickly averted my gaze. They were not, however, the worse thing on offer. I seem to remember a photograph, as if out of a nightmare, of a 'modernist' sporting sandals with socks. Please tell me I'm mistaken. Isn't Connery seen in sandals in 'Thunderball'? Some men can get away with anything. I cannot and would not.

Frat parties and beaches. Otherwise no.

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
Not for me. I think I was traumatised as a child wearing those plastic ones during summer holidays. When I got to wearing the converse type copies of tennis shoes as a 10/11 year old I felt a lot more comfortable.

Just thinking of that picture of Gerry Mulligan I mentioned elsewhere. Not all of the clothing of that era can be regarded as 'Ivy League', can it?

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
Never seen any photo of anyone, Connery or otherwise, wearing sandals, where the removal of said sandals wouldn’t have made a better picture.

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
My father (who was one of those arty types) wore sandals all year round with socks being the only concession to winter. If he had to wear dress shoes for some formal occasion he looked really glum until he could take them off.
Back to the topic; I have experimented with ‘fishermans’ sandals, the ones that are more like a shoe as they have a closed toe and heel. I feel they’re a bit naff really, okay for home and garden.

Re: Sandals - can they be part of the ivy look?
I'd argue (perhaps implausibly) that, looking at that shot of Mulligan blowing away, a certain style might be considered 'West Coast' (but only sockless): jazz, surf, chicks, iced drinks, Shorty Rogers dropping in to jam. But you'd have to see that photograph to get the point. As for Chet, I'm not so sure about his (what look like) sliders.
