Do you know which demographic is the biggest consumer of Jeffrey West shoes? White males circa 60 years of age.

I honestly assumed you were well into middle age and long bereft of coolness when you posted a link to those Jo Ghosts. I cannot imagine anyone other than an American, a black dude with a coke spoon hung round his neck or Jimmy Nail wearing 'em.
I think I'm cool as fk. As for other people? I couldn't care less. I just despair at the lack of imagination on this thread.

So you can add a pale white Glaswegian to your list, because I'm keeping a close eye on them from now on. smile

In solidarity with technodup, I've bought these. biggrin





I reckon with some more subtle brown laces they may be suitable for work. It's a colour scheme not too dissimilar to the budget Barkers I bought (and returned) a few pages back. Hopefully the toe isn't overly square. I'll have to see how they look in real life.

I think they are legit (rather than the cheapo ones mentioned earlier in the thread). Looking at the sole it has the same writing as the 'proper' ones on the website.




Unfortunately I don't have a pocket square to match with my flame suit. tongue out

Coming from you, I'll take that.

Seriously, I think with subtle laces, the blue/burgundy combination isn't too outrageous. As mentioned, I'll see how they are IRL and decide.

There are a couple of other pairs on TKMaxx:

Looks legit: http://www.tkmaxx.com/mens-shoes/tan-derby-brogues...
- Seems to have the proper soles. With brown laces, they aren't actually too crazy (relatively speaking)

These look less like 'proper' ones: http://www.tkmaxx.com/mens-shoes/tan-brown-leather...
- Looking at the JW website, I don't see any of their shoes having rounded toes. Also doesn't show the sole in these pics.

I can't find these boots on the JW website: http://www.tkmaxx.com/mens-boots/navy-suede-levee-...
Here are the 'proper' ones: http://www.jeffery-west.co.uk/jefferywest/product....

In all fairness, those are pretty tame as Jeffery West goes.
I think even I might consider wearing those.
Sorry, it's a bit of a cop out IMO biggrin

I am also very much of the opinion that any respectable spectator shoes should have a fairly substantial amount of white leather in the vamp.

Indeed. I wear my tan and blue suede Barkers at work.

I am very cool though.

Have a look several pages back where I posted pictures of the Barker shoes. Turns out there are several people wearing these AND driving BMW (Nesquick was one such user IIRC). From your profile I see you are something of a BMW fan.

Jeffrey West shoes are next on my list. Probably these ones:

I like how they look in an artistic sense but certainly wouldn't wear them. To me they're a bit too Mexican narco terrorist, but a proper hacienda,stairs dominating drug boss not some low ranking gang member.

All these Jeffrey west shoes are great looking but also a bit showy and effete. I expect women complement the wearer and wonder if he has a big dong and if they're possibly a homosexual.

The travellers go mad for them.

"I's Bought me and me Da and me Bra' a pair of skin' boots."


That is genuine, they love them.
Jeffrey west? Presumably long pointy high shine shoes with leather soles aren't best suited to a travellers lifestyle? I thought they rode horses up high streets and had bare chested fights in caravan parks?

Not that you're judgmental or anything....
