Damn! That atrocious pair of clunky Timberlands are driving me up the wall. Only Harith Iskandar would wear those.

Those basikal toes would be another story.

Make sure you use silk threads for the pick stitching on the side of the notes

Pick stitching is a no brainer. The TanSri should attempt buttonhole stitches around the edges with 24k gold gimp.

Not sure if you can get Saphirs where you are:-

1. Wipe the shoes with a lightly damp cloth to remove all surface dirt
2. Apply Saphir Creme Sufine in the correct color ( note :- do not over apply as this would make it difficult to remove )
3. Wait 15 to 20 minutes for it to dry
4. Remove with cotton rag
For the more intense glazed look try using Saphir's Pate de luxe in the same color & apply with a slightly damp cloth

You can see this on JM Weston's website if you are interested . The first time takes a bit of effort & time to achieve the shine after which it takes around 20 minutes to maintain .

Let me know if you need some help with this
Ps Nice shoes

Use wax only on the toecap and heel counter. You need around 10 layers to get that glossy shine.

Not really. We peasants have been using Kiwi for ages to shine our shoes. Recently shifted to Kakmj's recommendation, Starwax(even more peasant).

Actually most people don't understand the idea behind funky socks. They are meant to show rebellion, personality and contrast in the casual scene. Likewise, in a more professional environment, socks are not conformed to the dress codes of school uniforms in England. This gives room for a bold self-expression while still wearing a uniform. Just like undergarments, it's a very individual thing to wear. The look may be moot during a business meeting but for casual looks, I believe it's a better way to express oneself in place of wearing silly graphic or statement tees.
