hi guys, since this is a shoes thread, i guess i could ask a noobish question here >.<"
where can i get a shoes tree, and of course with its price as well
thx

ow...will plastic even hold firmly? i guess not, it'll eventually break

hmmm, i'll listen to your advice and not go for the plastic
did get one with spring, it kinda flimsy, and the spring seems does not hold tight enough...
so far all i can ask for cheapest is running at RM75 (wood)
the cash converter has 2nd hand which selling at RM12 only for wood!? but sold off...
since its a shoe tree, i don expect to spend much on it...
lanatir did mentioned the range is from 30-100, may i know where to get the 30bucks instead?

found this at isetan lot 10, for RM33.90 or RM35.90...forgot...
either way, why would i spend expensive shoes tree for a shoes that cost not even over 800? yes i'm cheap...thx for reminding...

thx for those who being informative...and.....for those who can't accept cheap.....er hmm er hmm.....
remember the thread title is shoes thread, it doesn't stated as "expensive shoes" only...
and i'm happy with what i have...

i dunno either, just that i found its very comfortable to wear on, bought it at metrojaya tho...
since it can get from a departmental store i'm sure is not those high end or tailor made shoes that you guys referring to...

i have to say that i have shallow knowledge on shoes, well today i just bought a pair of "dunno what" shoes, and it happened to meet my all my requirement (i really meant it when i said it met all the criteria i have in my mind", i always wanted a brown and with the specific pattern which desired, unfortunately due to the problem i have with my toe, i hardly wear heel shoes, so the prerably would be flat base....

Problem now is, i really need to ask all the gurus here, which type of pants to suit this shoes?
and a little information bout this shoes to be taught also a great help to me...can't google up any information by itself...
giancarlo nori is the name

Thx for the info...
i'm just a novice for shoes...
just some thought in mind,
unsure what made the sole, but it did feels like leather...
i really can't derive whether its synthetic or real coz i can't locate any indicator with the little hide icon...
besides, what else can i do to identify?
can it consider as a full brogued oxford? but i'm unsure whether its a oxford or derbies coz i not sure the tongue is stiched over the lace (will check it out tonight after work) since it have a wingtip and more punched through heel counter, and furthermore, its ballet flat. and 1 more thing, i suspect the shoe is blake stiched, not cemented >.<" correct me if i'm wrong....i bought a wrong shoes , blake = less robust

oh...and btw, i bought it at robinson the garden, great deal, coz they're having sales till this monthend (july).
spotted a few pair of florsheim with 30% :-) and a lot of italian made shoes and some london, looks descent...
since its friday, pay a visit there, u'll never regret...

you may find oxford almost at anywhere, from the big time departmental store like isetan, parkson, metrojaya, jusco, robinson, to your local stall, or shoes outlet/boutique...

decent, it depend on your personal preference...

How bout this?

Pertini is the name...after 50% discount, price at RM500
it should be a chelsea boots instead of this dress boots, which look similar except it's more smooth and clean (without buckle)

metrojaya member sales day...

Does anyone have the idea that, where the cobbler in klcc has moved?

by adjustable shoe trees you mean this?

^never saw those before in real, can't help

or just a shoe trees like below?

if it a shoe trees like below, most of the cobbler do carry them
Midvalley cobbler at B1 do carry shoe trees and selling RM70 a pair
but bear in mind, those are not cedar, just rubber wood, but good enough to absorb moist and reduce creases
you may ask for cedar shoe trees but those in 3 digit prices :-) RM250 is the lowest so far i've discovered
Florsheim cedar shoe trees RM199 at pavilion parkson. Structure as below :

Some of the gentlemen here may able to give you a ride in their bulk buying trip shipped in with much lower price and better quality.

classic penny loafers? with that budget, i believe you may find youself a pair at M&S

Added on May 13, 2011, 10:05 amThere is a lot of info given by all of the gentlemen in here, if you have the time read through the whole thread, it will definitely give you the idea which or where to get one of those "your desired" shoes.

Church's price is at the high side, if one aim for an "entry level" in this shoes world.
Loake or Cheaney may be a good start off with price as low as RM600
PLAL is the place to visit if you have the time...
anyway, that all just my 2 cents :-)

happy hunting

Added on May 13, 2011, 10:10 amFlorsheim could have high discount up to 70%, selling below RM500
Robinson @ Garden
Outlet @ BU
Parkson @ Pavilion

But you may end up spending more, cause florsheim carry their own shoe horn, tree and wax...which you may find it irresisstable. :-)
