Oh yes I agree. This kind of footwear has its place in life. Although that place is not this thread.

So Mr Feekle Troll, go forth and multiply with Mrs Crocs. May you have inter-species bliss.

Have you seen his shoe collection? He can rotate shoes after every meal and still not use his entire collection in a work week. Lol.

Oh yeah I'm aware of this collection...

But my sole would show more wear than his after just a couple of wears.

Lol, I was actually thinking the other day. I probably won't ever need to resole my shoes.

Anyway, my office space is all carpeted and I barely have to walk on the pavement. It's carpark to office to carpark and home. If I know I'm out in the streets for a long time, I tend to use the ones with Dainite soles.

Speaking of that, I just picked up another pair of Cheaneys yesterday tongue.gif

Figured so! One walk on gravel and those soles would look a lot worse than it is in your pics. Lol.

These days I prefer dainite soles because it's a lot longer lasting and more comfortable. Pity it's a lot less common.

It's been on pavements before but it didn't do too bad. I guess it's the exposure to water/rain that messes it up.

Here's the new Cheaneys innocent.gif
I was thinking maybe something for rainy days with less maintence. Also I'm toying with the idea of getting a custom made Cheaneys on the 1 of 1 programme.

Wasn't thinking of another shoe but then got invited to the Cheaney Ambassador evening over at Covent Garden few days ago. Met with Mr Church himself and also placing an order for a semi bespoke 1 of 1 Cheaneys. It's been a great evening with drinks and meeting like minded people.

My colleague's pair of shoes was in tatters so I offered to do it up for him. It was quite in a state when he brought it over. It should be in the bin really.

Before

A bit of clean up with renovateur and conditioning

After

Some cream polish to minimise the scuffings and wax polish to bring out the shine. Decided to do a light mirror shine on the toe cap but didn't want to over egg it. Wasn't quite sure if he want it that shiny and I didnt want to spend too much time on it.

I don't think Cheaney has ever made a shoe that looked that hideous. Those shoes are apparently made by a company called Base London.
