Came here to post these 2

Could a desert boot fit for summer too?

>>13248869
In the same way that Converse Hi-Tops fit: technically, but harder than its worth

>>13248724
Considering these Guccis for summer

just wear sneakers or you'll look like an autist

>>13249019
Around 90% of people of under 40 years old, wear sneakers, its just niggercore

>>13248898
Why would someone spend money on Guccis and then treat them like dirt?

>>13249051
Not sure. Imma buy these ones used for cheap and then fix them up once I get them

>>13248762
What Brands/styles should I look for?

>>13249121
why are you buying used shoes? especially loafers? if you dont want to pay retail at least get new ones from a second hand seller

>>13249139
Callaghan
Sebago
Snipe
Timberland

>>13248898
They need to be the velvet ones

>>13249145
I'd add Sperrys but I don't think they're available at the mo

>>13249164
Which style do you think would be best?

>>13249194
Difficult to say exactly, I'd recommend going to a store and trying a bunch to see which you prefer. In general Is stick with brown, will go with everything you're likely to wear in warmer weather.

>>13249140
I don't really see the problem? I don't live in a third world country like America, so I can safely buy something used knowing it's been taken good care of, and the seller almost always has a receipt. I can buy these loafers for 100$ which is quite a steal compared to 750$ retail.

>>13249222
Dope I appreciate it man

>>13249270
wearing someone elses used shoes is disgusting

>>13249140
Why would you pay $700 for a pair of shoes that depreciates in value by like 40% the second you put it on your feet

>>13249709
if youre too poor to afford retail

>get new ones from a second hand seller

wearing beat up shoes is gross

Anyone have experience with these? How do they fit?
I'm looking for this kind of shape, and I think the somewhat chunkier sole looks cute.

>>13249796
just get the regular 1461 monos for half as much

don't wear without socks though, blisters are a bitch

>>13250061
What does the £45 difference entail? I'd imagine the leather is higher quality.

Is this too tacky ?

>>13249039
You've got some interesting ideas about sentence structure.

>>13249566
Having a strong opinion about something as trivial as thrifting is disgusting

What do you guys think of these?

>>13250113
Not if you're /sleazy/ and handsome.

>>13250577
Only if you're knee-deep in japanesque cozycore

>>13250584
Any idea what this type of shoe is called? The ones in the pic are Clarks, but I'd rather buy a different brand.

>>13250589
Generally you can identify most generic leather shoe types by addressing individual qualities. In this case the lacing throat is separated 2-piece type so they are bluchers\derbies (they are synonyms)
The defining feature of these shoes is the split apron toe so you'd need to look for;
Split apron/moc toe blucher/derby -shoes

Boat shoes or loafers? Whats better for casual wear?

>>13248869
>>13248890

Clarks Desert London or jink.

>>13251042
loafers

works with more types of fits than boat shoes imo

>>13250269
i would argue that disliking used shoes isnt trivial at all because of the host of problems and complications that can arise from buying a used pair of shoes.

>>13248724
>loafers
>casual

those are dress shoes

>>13251975
No, stupid american

>>13251975
If you wear loafers to anything even semi-formal you deserve to be put out of your misery.
You might be able to just barely get away wearing them for business casual, anything above that it's equivalent to wearing t-shirts with ripped denim.

>>13250113
Jojo supporting character tier

>>13251984
Then what the fuck do YOU wear you autist?

>>13252032
To formal shit? Dress shoes.
What else? That's really the only thing that is acceptable to wear there.
Not everything made out of leather is a fucking dress shoe, or do you think Birkenstock sandals are okay to pair with a suit as well?

>>13252055
t. wears dockers

>>13252032
It's even in their name - "loafers". Jesus christ, they are meant to be shoes you slip on when you are just casually loafing around and not doing anything of importance. If you show up to an important wedding or a job interview for any pay grade above McD's wearing them you'd be laughed out of the room.

>>13251999

this legitimately looks like jojowear

>>13248773
espadrilles are too feminine, the nice ones anyway

>>13248724
Driving shoes

>>13248762
Never boat shoes

>>13248724
Try driving mocs or espadrilles

don’t fall for this meme if you want a shoe that lasts for over 5 seconds

>>13248860
on my last trip to paris, me and my family went to printemps and i noticed there were sketchers in the womens' sneaker section. i found it pretty surreal that the same store that sells 10,000 euro dolce & gabbana dresses and 1,000 euro hermes belts would also sell a shoe that only dads and autists wear

>>13250113
Not if you look like this

>>13252942
lol look at this dumbass, learn how to spell skechers

>>13252032
>wears loafers to formal events
>calls other people autistic

Not sure if this is the right thread but Ive got big feet and I've been looking for some mid/low tier derbies for some fits I've been planning.

Can't afford the high end ones I'd like yet (poorfag), thoughts on these? These are c larks, I've got like a £50 voucher for em so was thinking may as well use it on a shoe i want.

>>13253903
Can definitely recommend COS' Derbys if you are on a budget.
There's a sale going on right now and I grabbed a pair myself, can't really speak for longevity yet obviously but they definitely look and feel high end.

I'm UK 13, no way is COS stocking my size.

>>13251975
Loafers are about as formal as sneakers.

semi casual i’ll show the soul in next photo (calvin klein plz no hate)

>>13249796
if you're under 6' then go for it (lol)

>>13252942
Glad you enjoyed the irony of dad shoe on effay.

>>13250577
It tells me you work as a server at Applebees or Cheesecake Factory.

>>13251128
I like the blue for casual summer wear. Sand or brown would be more versatile for tear round use.

>>13248762
Fpbp tbqh. The only people who hate them are edgy 18 year old geed dorks

>>13254929
I'm 186cm with size 46 feet. clown shoes?

>>13251184
>the host of problems and complications that can arise from buying a used pair of shoes
Unless you get shoes that are in very good condition, or that can be resoled, you will be inheriting the gait patterns and characteristics of the former owner.

>>13251184
I feel as though you are grossly over-exaggerating potential issues, but that's your choice. To me, buying somebodys used but in good condition dress shoes is a good trade-off, especially when it means I pay 84% less than I would if they were new. I just hit them with disinfectant, clean them up and they form to my foot after a week.

>>13248762
why was this awful post so well-received?
despairing for /fa/ atm

gladiator sandals. feel free to jack my swag.

>>13248898
i hate that style of toe

>>13249051
because you can't replace the sole lmao

>>13249796
size them like converse. too bulky for summer wear imo unless you have like... cropped loose fitting blue jeans

>>13250113
the heel ruins it

>>13250577
airport shoes

>>13254902
awful

>>13249774
>haha too poor to throw away money for no reason??!?!
great argument

>>13255037
If you have a chance to try them on check if 45 will fit you. Im the same height myself and 46 would definitely look clowney on me.

What do you guys think of these?

>>13255376
Are they non-slip? I need new shoes for my restaurant job

>>13248724

nigga said "soul"

Gotta recommend the forever appropriate yet casual Chelsea boot, unless your summers are nuclear they're good for every season

What's /fa/'s opinion on Monkstraps?
Might get a pair for work and also for a post-punk/sleaze mixed fit

>>13248724
>being a male
>over the age of 23
>not wearing leather boots as your everyday shoes
>regardless of season

Grow up

>>13256627
Gotta be brown double monkstraps

>>13248869
Yes. They were made for hot weather, after all.

>>13256762
chill grandpa

>>13256762
Who gives a shit

I just bought regular loafers for graduation photo shoot. As a semi-formal combination, what trousers I should wear with these? How would I look if I choose cropped trousers?

>>13248860
These actually look like good summer shoes though.

>>13257864
Sorry anon, that shoe isn’t semi-formal and looks ugly :(

>>13256460
7/10 but looks comfy

>>13257864
You should take those back of you intended to appear semi-formal with it. Loafer were originally intended to be shoes you can wear around your own house, they are for a purely casual look.
Why do you Americans think anything that's black leather is formal? It's so weird.

>>13248762
I bought a pair of B shoes in december and can't say Im at all satisfied. They're too unbreathable to wear when it's actually hot outside, no-show socks suck dick and get eaten by my sole every 2 minutes, and they're impossible to wear with almost anything (can someone POST an actual good fit with boat shoes? I manage to look decent with them on maybe 2 fits max)

>>13248773
flipas tio onda vital

Are bass weejuns any good?

>>13256794
Are black double straps ok?
Just that brown would look out of place with my mostly black fits I'm going to get them for

>>13258880
Did you get leather ones? Plus I'd recommend no socks at all with them. As for fits, depends if they're brown or navy.

>>13251128
thinking about coping these in "cola suede", do they fit true to size?

>>13259373
theyre only like $100, go for it

>>13259373
Not anymore. 50 years ago, sure.

>>13259380
They work too if it's in a formal situation but would say to definitely get doubles as singles look somewhat feminine, for extra style points have buckles match belt as well as leather

This is what I use during the summer, 2 pair of Speery's Gold Cup and bit loafers from Cole Haan.

I stopped scrolling to post that I primarily buy thrifted shoes. I hope this enrages the don't buy used anon.

>>13253903
Bumping also to add.

Would these shoes suit casual fits like pic related? Since these are the type of fits in planning to use em with and I’m not sure if Clark’s has derbies that’d fit/be good and I don’t believe the shoes in my first post are specifically derbies

>>13257864
those are awful and you can't wear them to anything formal
>>13258838
americans who dont/have not yet gone to college know three dress codes: sweatpants, "mommy made me wear a collared shirt" and prom

Where can I buy a shoe similar to this without the Clark's logo on it?

Dude, those are driving mocs not 'regular' loafers

>>13261297
not with socks dude, its ridiculous

>>13249796
stop buying shitty made in china garbage

get solovair, the original doc brand split into two and solovair kept the quality

Outside of extremely high paying positions and very specific professions, no one will "laugh you out of a room" if you wear penny loafers.

>>13262222
Read what he said. If you are going to something formal, ie exactly those high paying positions and specific professions, you will be laughed out of the room.
If you are just dressing up for business casual, which is enough in most cases and sometimes even preferred nowadays, you can get away with them for sure. Do you think you have to be formal for some throwaway 7/11 interview or something?

>>13256762
im 20 and wear leather boots every day and i still think this is autistic

>>13262566
>>13262566
I did read what (You) said. Have you actually ever been to an important wedding? No one who's posting on an Armenian basket weaving forum is going to be attending these supposed extravagant events that you're referring to. So the point is moot. And apparently wearing nothing but formal wear to a decent job interview will have you "laughed out". I don't work at a job comparable to entry level, and did not wear a 3 piece suit with a correctly matching belt and oxfords, it must be a miracle I was hired.

Or maybe you're just autistic.
