Very nice indeed. £££???
These were from the factory shop (that is open to the public) and they had a sticker price of about 30% off the normal retail price...https://www.johnlobb.com/en_gb/mens-shoes/william-...

My wife used to work there. I have a Red and Blue pair of 3 eyelet deck shoes. Theyre rather worn now but incredibly comfy for bimbling about in. Should probably give them a clean and wax!Ambleton said:

They look foot shaped, probably supremely comfortable.Since I switched to barefoot shoes I simply can't wear my old shoes.

Just a heads up, I only ware Oliver Sweeneys as I know their size 8s fit me perfectly, plus I usually like their styles. They have one of their usual sales on at the moment and there's a facebook discount code FB20 to be used as well that takes off a further 20% with free delivery above £99 spend.
Just ordered £3-400s worth. Bargain if you like their (incredibly well made in my opinion) shoes.

would never fit me! I get away with a size 8 if it's G width but it's always tight. In f act if you measure my feet you find they are a size 7 with the width being the G width for a size 12. I have worked really hard to find shoe manufacturers who make shoes that actually fit without having to have about 3 inches of useless shoe flopping around in front of my toes. Grenson's tend to be winder than most, but other than for smart shoes there's not much out there. all, of course. without paying for a bespoke pair which is more than I want or could justify paying for shoes. and you can't get decent bespoke trainers anyway.

My daughters hate them and have used the word tragic quite freely. Pah, what do they know; if I'm having a mid-life crisis I'm planning to do it with shoes that aren't typically middle aged shoes.
Ask your daughter if she likes your “fresh peng crepes” and see if her eyes actually roll back into her brain. BigBen said:
Long time reader of this thread but first time I have remembered to take a picture of some new shoes.
The constant online display of Herring Shoe Sale adverts finally got to me so I bought these:
So far so good but it is early in the running in process.

Purple is a bold choice here. I like them. The constant online display of Herring Shoe Sale adverts finally got to me so I bought these:
