The pocket squares were from Battisti Napoli, bought online from e-haberdasher. I was also curious to see the difference between a hand rolle & stitched pocket square and a normal machine stitched one (which I previously procured from Charles Tyrwhitt)

My recently acquired shoes. Not EG, Lobb...just made by a local shoemaker. Quality seems pretty good, whether it will hold up to wear remains to be seen.



Have been trying to make them a darker shade of brown by polishing. Not sure if Saphir Creme de Luxe is the right cream, but it didn't turn out too bad.

A Shanghainese handmade shoe? Is the insole made of thick leather?

Currently wearing nudie thin fin dry stretch , thinking to match with Fred perry on CNY , but any suggestion on the shoe ?
What make the perfect match ? Maybe dessert boots?

Beijing made actually. The insole doesn't feel very thick. These are my first 'real' pair of shoes, I am unsure of the construction whether they are Goodyear welted etc.

bexley is having her online sales now. anyone know if this shoe cream is any good?

I'm starting to get into korean fashion.
Looking at the ravishing timberland boots are the best.

Imagine folding bottom of your slim jeans to the height of top rear of your boot.
look so rugged and casual at the same time.

This is only advisable for people who wear slim or skinny jeans.
regular nor classic jeans look cool with boots.

Bexley shipping charges slightly on the high side . Not tried this

i did a comparison with valmour. bexley's shipping charge is still more 'affordable' that valmour.

i am eyeing on the cedar shoe tree, euro59 for 5:

surely, you now have more shoe trees than you have shoes that need them.

I am gonna risk getting flamed for exhibiting a pair from Zara as an example.
Does anyone have an idea where can I source a pair of formal moccasin's similar to these?
Perhaps something with more gloss to it as well.
Nothing too pricey I am looking at sub RM400.
Thanks!

Could work out the same as the one you recommended me on EBay

in my case, shoe trees are always insufficient. i have more shoes than the shoe trees.

2 additional pairs are soon to arrive.

Traditionally loafers are worn casually, so they aren't really formal. The most formal shoes are Oxfords. For a tux, oxfords made from patent leather. So if you're getting it for formal occasions I'd suggest oxfords or brogues.

Anyway, this is within your budget but be quick.

any idea any good shoe shops in Berlin?

Thier back from the cobbler



L-R Loakes,Loakes, Cheaney ,Churches

Close up's



Any suggestions on belts ??

what should a standard maintenance kit contain?

Brush/cloth/ wax?

went to giraffe today.

is a newly venture outlet in Malaysia bringing extra inches to men's height.

The problem with their shoes are the design they are selling.

so dull and yet no high kicks shoe.

example;

realise that, regardless how nice your shoes are, they dont shine without a pair of nice socks.

where do u guys shop for socks and how much is the budget?
