Proper shoes!

Mmmh, as my new Van Liers are worn in a few weeks now it's time for a review and a snappy.

Soon! They dance pretty good BTW.

Just got these from Asda (get back, you bds!) for £30. I was very surprised just how good quality they are, nice and soft and comfy. The soles aren't at all hard or plastic-feeling as you may expect them to be smile

Am I the only person who's never worn trainers other than when playing a sport?

Having owned both a pair of tan & black Loake brogues, oxblood Church's brogues and brown RM Williams Chelsea boots for many many years with no real need for replacement, I thought I try my hand at the 'cheapy' Loake line, and got these for work:

So far, I'm very happy with them. The leather took a good couple of doses of beeswax polish to loosen, but the quality really is good for the price. Looking forward to comparing them to the premium line ones.

Liam, that's not a collection, that's a pile.

Agreed, lovely.

I adore my tan brogues, though I forgot how sharp they are when new. Mine have taken on a slightly darker 'spectrum' of colours from many years of wear and polishing...

I also have the plainer brown barkers, never polished, great shoe but look like a spectrum also...!

had a pair of gorilla feet as my son calls them for over a year now..once you get used to putting the "little piggie" in there great !!
Great aren't they?!

I have some ancient Vans I wear every day, second comfiest shoes I've ever had.
Something kind of smart but never get worn.
Well worn running shoes.
The ever favourite Five-fingers, comfiest shoes ever.
As for new, I picked up a dirt cheap pair of footy boots as I've started playing rugby recently.
And some flip-flops somewhere that I can't find.

My Paul Smith 'daily drivers'. They are a bit 'fashion' but they are nice and comfortable and haven't fallen to pieces yet.

I like those a lot, link? The bit about not falling apart yet, is that the rep PS shoes have?

Edit: Should read whole thread before asking

Edited by Origin Unknown on Tuesday 21st August 17:24
Thanks.

I only thought they'd fall apart because they're a bit of a fashion shoe, rather than a sturdy shoe!

I can't find mine online now but these look pretty cool.

Bit of a big ask but any chance you have a part number or a name for the trainers in your OP please mate? Those are exactly what I'm after but I cannot find them for love nor money smile

I've got a pair of these in brown purely for work. They live in the office so they're barely broken in after a month or two. Look great and are quite a wide fit so comfortable for the whole day. Highly recommended.
