The men's dress style thread..

[Accy cyclist]

Black is fine with a blue tweed suit, like the rather fine one I bought on your recommendation. But that said, I reckon brogues or semi-brogues would be better than plain oxfords if worn with tweed. Plain black Oxfords are arguably the most formal style so are better with a business suit or for black tie events

I found a pair of black Loake 1880 Oxfords a few years ago, in the retro clothing shop I work in. They were in my 10 size and looked hardly worn. Perfect for £30 or so, but unfortunately they had slippery leather soles, so I didn't buy them. I could've had rubber Vibram soles fitted in one of the nearby Timpson shoe repairs etc places for £35. Damn! Why didn't I think of doing that at the time!🙄

I've just bought these, plus a Loake suede brush.

At that reduction I couldn't resist. Yes, I have a pair of dark brown Loake suede shoes, but I've always fancied some monkey strap shoes, especially the double strap ones.😉

I hope I’m not encouraging you to spend all your savings.🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ah, I remember Saturday and Sunday evenings in the 1960's, watching that on our late 1950's, 14 inch, one minute to warm up then come on, black and white television!🧐

Yup
The one we had as a kid - in the 1960s - sometimes needed a good bang to get it working properly

I was the only one that had the knack to do it first time

had to be firm and precise

The kids nowadays just wouldn;t understand!!!
