the past few years I've realized that less is more: it's better to save and go for a better quality item (to the extend of one's finances ofcourse) rather than getting more items of lesser quality. That's why the last years I go for either Alden Shells or british shoes (C&J, Cheaney, G0 Grensons, etc) with the sporadic exception of impulse buys at the lower end of the spectrum (Barker, Loake, Carlos Santos). However, if you're on a tight budget (a pair of Alden Shells in the EU costs more than the minimum monthly wage of half of the European countries) I recommend the Meermins and Herring own series.True. I think if you want a Goodyear welted shoe, Meermin offers a good looking shoe for a competitive price. However, I'd rather buy rapid Blake stitched shoes in same price range, but with higher attention to detail. Like velasca milano:
