Footwear to go with our jackets

[Marvin Berry]

Shearling lined Acme harness boots that my father got new in the early-mid 70's. Worn in just right and still warm.

Tricker's Stow Boot in Acorn. Built like tanks.

 

[NielsLyhne]

RM Williams Gammon Chelseas.

These are my “late to an appointment” boots. So easy to slip in and out of, supple yet very grippy soles and a lot more flair to my eyes than a pair of sneakers.

I even came to like the weird yet characteristic stretch mark.

Another pair of Tricker's - Grasmere in kudu.

Is the aero natural CXL?

Is the aero natural CXL?

No, it is brown. I have a crappy mobile that I use for photo's.
I ordered this jacket in 2015 and received it in early 2016, it has broken in and is far more grainy than what it seems from the photo.

Plus: they are perfectly fine for the office too. Love mine!

Indeed ! I wish mine had a stacked heel like yours though. Lovely motif on that suit.

Thanks much.

Boots are ca. two years old, after RMW have been re-bought into Australia. I have one pair by the original makers. Much less flashy but a bit better constructed.
Suit is flannel, so I am making use of the last days of winter…

Allstate j71 with toys mccoy engineer. Schott vest.

Not as posh as some of the footwear featured, but I got some new Solovair Monkey Boots today, and I'm pleased. My previous pair lasted forever and were my most comfortable boots - fingers crossed these have some of the same magic.

70s or 80s smooth ostrich Lucchese San Antonio. The last decades that all their boots were handmade.

 

[MickeyPunch]

I heard Lucchese are not worth the price point these days, is that accurate? I liked their Jonah boot in suede (the closest I can get to a cowboy boot) but I went with some roughout Tecovas Dax, much cheaper but apparently not that far away in terms of quality (made in Mexico vs made in USA helps).

I don't know, I only handled their vintage handmade boots. They're are not all that hard to find in like new condition for a couple hundred bucks.

First pair of engineer boots coming, I purchased the Mister Freedoms. I read that they have a higher than average instep which is good for me, hope they fit

Seeing a pair of monkey boots takes me right back. I used to wear monkey boots to school every day in the 80s.

Shoes always seemed to fit better and be much more comfortable back then, but I suppose it's just that forty years later my feet are old and wrecked

Herring shearling lined derby boots. Made in Spain, no idea who makes them for them. Combined with my Mariner.
