Sperrys and Polos Fall 2011: Boots and Bourbon

**cheesemachine** · 10-01-2011, 03:32 PM

Hey brahs,
I have a (first) date tonight. We're going to an outside restaurant for dinner, and possibly a movie after. There could be a lot of walking involved, and there is good chance I will be sweating because it seems like it's always 85+ in Austin, Texas. I have a good idea of what I'm going to wear, but I'm curious as to what you guys would wear.
Will try to post pics after date.

Depends on the restaurant but generally washed cotton chinos, casual lace ups and a sport shirt or sweater depending on weather.

Picked up a navy Hart Shaffner Marx suit at Dillards today. It's at the tailor now. Also picked up a new tie and some fuking patriotic cufflinks (can't deny a job to a patriot, brah) to wear with my white shirt. Almost pulled the trigger on a pair of baller Gravati shoes today. Still might go pick them up when the suit gets back from the tailor. The ass at the store made me try them on with an AE at the same time before he told me the price. Good sales tactic is good. I'll post pics of the whole get-up when it all gets back, thanks again for the help (I know I still owe some of you reps):

In on this. Just noticed I hadn't gotten in here yet.

Need a pair of dark loafers for winter to take over for my topsiders after mid-fall..thoughts?

**LoneWolf2** · 10-01-2011, 10:52 PM

penny loafers are a good option.

Been trying to find some I like but Sperry doesn't have any that catch my eye. All of theirs that I would like have heels that are too high.

**slapaho** · 10-01-2011, 11:07 PM

Just bought this for the cold weather. It's finally starting to cool down in TX!

most penny's will have a higher heel than most other shoes, that's just the style of the shoe.

Anyone know where I can get some boots like these or what they're considered? All the ones I've been finding are either too light of a brown or have a white sole.

LMAO this thread always brings the daily lols, repped

**solidmusclejake** · 10-02-2011, 07:14 AM

Went thrifting yesterday and scored 2 RL sweaters, and 2 RL button downs for....$28. What a steal. There was what seemed to be a new BB non iron for $7, but it was a size to big, oh well.

Also, the Bonobos FB page wont work for me, every time I enter my email address it says an error occured, anyone else having problems with it?

Normally I would agree too, but there is not always a great selection. My college town has a Jos, and that's about it in terms of "fine" clothiers. ha
