Hiya.
First post..

I'm looking to buy a pair of navy topsiders - the 'authentic original' ones. Has anyone seen them in London stores? Looks like urban outfitters now sells them in the states but their UK website doesn't have them listed. Anyone seen them in any urban outfitters stores in London? Or anywhere in London?

Ta.

mmm, not keen on the brown...summer shoe, needs to be brighter imo...i think that blue is the darkest shade id go.

And on oipolloi, UK12 is sold out.

How predictable.

Really like your ones in WAYWT, also short length is perfect for that look. Kinda bit that look a bit myself with the cardie aswell down the beer garden.

Noble, I def take on board your point but I just see brown as most versatile. I love your yellow Hockneys but would struggle to incorporate them into outfits so wouldn't get enough wear out of em. Plus, the tops usually the lairy part of my outfit.

aye mine are unbelieably lairy...but that brown takes them back to old man/regatta boy territory imo...the blue looks so much nicer/fresher to me.

I like brown boat shoes, but they have to be a lighter shade of brown for summmer imo, more versatile in a tobacco like colour aswel.

The topman boats are vile. Just look like a bastard hybrid with one of their plimsols.
