Thought we could do with a shoes/boot thread, as don't often see much discussion about them. At the moment im looking for some but nothing has really caught my eye. Anyone seen anything nice recently?

you're not as cool as you think you are so please give details of the items you post

From the Buttery Store SS/2012 lookbook, but not on their site.

Those are Pointer A/W 2012, available around September.

Yep exactly like CP’s. That is unless you possess ridiculous wide feet.

i have those in US 8.5 / UK 8 and think they fit true. the US 9 / UK 8.5 suede ones fit me better.

(for ref i wear UK 8.5 in most Nike and Vans, UK 8 in Trickers, Red Wing).

Cheers Kid. Does anyone know where I can get orange Diemme laces, or have any spare to sell ? I've searched online, can't be got.

SlimJim caliroots and present usually have some stock they don't at the minute but contact them and ask when they'll have them in stock.

Anyone got an idea how Raf Simons' derbies fit? Got my eyes on a pair which is only left in a 43, I'm normally in between 43-44.

Where in london can i get a pair of shoes stretched (width, my wide old plats strike again)? There's no shoe for me to take them back to do it.

Cobbler will do it for about £3, might fuck them up though.
