If you are willing to order online and wait to get the stuff, and if you can up your budget some, I think you will be very, very happy with Meermin. Otherwise, you can always find something on Ebay. If you can find any Magnanni shoes in your size (though, bear in mind they do run big), those might be the best bang for your buck you will find.

Why is the thread title called 'Shoes for Real Men'? I mean why put the 'real'? Just wondering

By the way, where to get a nice pair of chukka boots other than Clarks? I went to a Clarks in a shopping mall and it costed around RM500++, out of my budget. If cheaper a bit is preferable for me but I know Clarks got the quality la. But really want to try and see if got cheaper brand elsewhere or if can buy Clarks elsewhere for cheaper

Online. My last purchase was from Straits Establishment, a Singapore site, but just searching Saphir Malaysia shows a lot of new(to me) options including Shoetree Project and shopee.

Shoetree Project looks particularly interesting. My next purchase will probably be from them.

I'd rather support the local sartorial scene. Plus supporting local businesses in general. And shipping will likely be faster as well.

Buy shoes from UK normally will get tax?

10% applicable tax you mentioned is SST?

I just check, P. Lal cedar wood show tree is around RM216
Fo you guys know where else have cheaper cedar wood shoes tree?

Is this the one you guys are talking about?
https://shopee.com.my/irish_shoe_care_solution

Does it have strong cedar wood scent? Actually is it supposed to have? Ppl say it can help deodorize the shoe?

Is there any recommendation for budget shoe brand? I currently own a pair of hush puppies, looking into maybe tomaz?

still looking forward to buy saphir mirror gloss which is currently out of stock

Spent an hour with the Famaco and this is what happened.



I'll probably buff out the micro scratches some other time but otherwise what do you guys think?
