These looks like the type of shoes that council children wear to school (when they don't rock up in trainers).
Sounds like someone who failed the entrance exam to the council school.

Picked these up today while I was out





I liked them but wasn't going to get them, however the OH thought they looked great and got them for me.

PH shoe men, tell me which shoe stretchers to buy please! I have disgracefully had a pair of LV shoes that haven't had any in during storage and they look a little worse for wear!

Thanks, Tom.

Re: Ted Baker quality... I have some... and they're pants.

They have a strange thin rubber insert on the ball of the foot which has basically fallen off...

Definitely these. I have these in all my shoes now.

Note that they are called shoe trees and they are designed to keep the original shape of the shoe and to reduce creasing. I believe shoe stretchers are a different beast with a mechanical screw system designed to physically stretch the leather because the shoes are too small for you.

They look very nice, thank you. The offer has expired though, although they're still heavily reduced smile

The first of today's 2 pairs to arrive.

Adidas Hyndburn Spezial 2015

Wow, I really like those!
Me too!
x3

The pattern on the sole (from online pics) reminds me of my Ringo Super I had as a lad.

Not sure either ... Need a new pair of trainers: any thoughts on Adidas or Puma?

Can anyone point me in the direction of my next pair of shoes? Although when I say shoes I mean boots, I don't wear shoes.

Must be black, no laces, preferably not chelsea style with the elastic, definitely no brogue type perforations. Basically plain black and pointed with a zip fastening (or the toggle closure Jeffery West did once about 20 years ago!).

Given the tight spec price is open ended.

Strange criteria TBH. Most decent, welted boots will be lace ups or Chelsea elastic.

Jeffery West might be one of your only hopes

Personally, I would be looking at lace ups from Crockett & Jones or Trickers.

Harrison's I believe... Goodyear welted sole, bargain at £90 I think.

Too big for my dainty size 11s.
