Nobody notices shoes at work, so why not buy something cheap, well made and comfortable?

He says

Heh, I knew what kind of reaction I'd get on here!

Heh, I assumed we were all having a laugh on here. Especially the way people take the piss out of other people's taste. Didn't realise you were one of the serious ones. Crack on...

I think I'd only really pay any attention to someone's shoes if they turned up wearing those 2-tone brogue clown shoes. Or something that looked like it was provided by the NHS.

Here are some more traditionally executed heels which are still tapered, pitched and canted but less extreme than the Japanese offerings.

Who makes those? They look quality and the colour/type I'm after.

Foster & Son and yes they are quality, amongst the very best.

Chuck Taylor all star 2's

Really like the gum sole option, not seen another pair like them.

I've had many pairs original Chuck Taylor's over the years, the new inserts in the soles of these are extremely comfortable.

I bought a pair of black Tekoa waterproof boots a month or so ago, and they must have the new inserts as well because they are far more comfortable than my other Chuck Taylor's.

Got these for Xmas, can't imagine anything comfier for kicking about the house.

While we're on soles, what do you think about the Prada 'Levitate' sole? Brilliant for when you cant wear your Air Max to court

I pray that they are a hoax and then I went to google...... the "range" starts at around £280 and goes up to £800!!!!

I'm swaying towards the darkside (you could also try stick on soles)

[FreeLitres]

Quick heads-up - The code AMZ12 gets you £10 off at Charles Tyrwhitt. Their popular Cedar shoe trees are thus £14.90 delivered. I just ordered a pair.



You can only use the code once though

Had my old VFFs out for a blast this week.

For health, comfort and deadlifts, they cannot be beaten!

(holy post resurrection!!)

Complete tosh. In fact the company that makes them have been sued for making such unsubstantiated claims.

What are people's thoughts of these? They are Oliver Sweeney Aldeburgh in black. looking for a few smart shoes to wear to work. Probably look at getting some Loakes or Churches as a second pair if I decide to keep these.

Those abominations could come with the promise of eternal life and still no self-respecting adult should wear them.
