Looking for some good shoes to wear with casual (i.e. not suits) outfits. I can spend around $600.

>> No.7192876

By the way, I forgot to mention, the one in the picture is a pair I'm considering buying. I want derbies really... Not a fan of cap toes with casual outfits.

This is the sort of shit I might wear, by the way. I hate to post the same fit all the time but I think it's the most representative.

>>7192932
I had a look at Doc Martens, not sure the 1461 is suitable. The Galen might be okay (will post image next post)...

Well, when I first became interested in trying to improve my appearance I used to copy shop mannequins which looked shockingly atrocious on a human...

But yes as you can see I need to upgrade from the $30 Clarks in that picture.

its the way ur shaped, or the way the picture makes u look shaped, its just awkward, disconcerting, uncomfortable, constipated

It's because I have a slight rounded posture, so I forcefully pull my head and shoulders back and push my stomach out for most pictures. Looks very stiff...

Which of the shoes ITT do you think suit my clothing best?

>> No.7193037

>>7192985
i would first get those pants tailored and start sizing up on your tops. if you want a casual dress shoe at a lower end go for docs or redwing postmans,ccp derbies, these http://www.mrporter.com/product/376370

Oh fuck, I was going to buy those Grensons, but then somebody took the piss out of the sole and it totally put me off.

By the way I'm probably not going to tailor the trousers any further if you mean waist/leg... They fit very slim as is, just unhemmed which I will get done at some point.

I think what we can all learn from this thread is that if you have wide hips then you should just give up on ever trying to be /fa/.

Meermin are awkward as fuck to order from. And good luck with any returns processes - you'll have to pay for shipping back to Italy, and then wait for them to bank transfer back to you.

Check out Doucal's - they make some nice brown burnished derbys and are excellent quality for the price. You could pick up a couple of styles for 600.

Alden or Allen Edmonds in USA too. Loake, Trickers, Barker in UK.

wide hips aren't that much of a problem tbh, the thing with this guy is the shitty blocky torso and slouched back

Blocky torso = hinders fashion, but good for fighting
