What did you last buy? Post a picture - your own picture, no stock pics! Say what the item is - it isn't always clear! State where you got it from - saves a million questions! (new thread, old one archived here) |

I think his point is that to anyone off the street it's a bank clerks type of shoe. You're so caught up in a fashion bubble that it doesn't register... |

they are just plain black shoes that any person on the planet would pick up if they were in urgent need for smart black shoes for a funeral. not really fashion as such imho. |

They ARE fashion shoes. I, for one, fucking hate them, and most other shoes wouldn't provoke that reaction. Blandly bland shite. Or summit. |

Im just under 5'10, measure 31.5" from base of collar to hem in a medium - same as the large 1950s paisley I have. Would look odd untucked with smarter trousers at that length on me |

you cant alter the length of shirts. never works. I thought a shirt being taken up was a quick and easy job for alterationists? Surely taking 1.5" off so it equals the length of a small wont cock it up |

I've had it done and the hem looks exactly the same as before, just shorter obviously. |

And Im sure they can/do fold it up when shortening so they can undo it if you dont like it |

. Liked the fit on the faded black denim they did in the 50s cut. Was hoping it'd be similar for this seasons.
