@TheMeJustMe75 2 года назад

I was in West Tennessee visiting family a few years back. We had gone to this small locally owned restaurant. This elderly man and his wife came in. What caught my eye was his black/white wing tips. These shoes were awesome and the only shoes like them I had seen was in the movie The Untouchables. This man had a three piece on with the pocket watch put in the watch pocket and he had a really fancy cane. I went over to him after they sat down and I introduced myself. I told him that I thought his shoes were great. I asked him where he got them. He laughed and said "son, I bought these in Memphis back in the 40's and I have polished them every week since." His shoes literally looked like he had just bought them, that's how clean and well kept his shoes were. I told him that I have wanted a pair for years but only Doc Martin made them with a boot sole. He laughed and told me good luck in my search. I have been to a lot of shoe stores and everyone that works there just looks at me like I am crazy if I ask if they can get them.

@TheCityLawyer 2 года назад

I’m fortunate enough to have finally reached that point in my career where I can afford my first pair of bespoke shoes. I have tremendous trouble with my feet so I feel like it’s a priority over any other type of bespoke item. After watching your videos with all the different makers, I am convinced that a pair of cap-toed Oxfords like the ones Dominic Casey made for you are my ideal starting point. Let’s just hope he has the availability!

@jonathanhicks140 Год назад

If your’ feet give you trouble then you may wish to consider a pair of Derby style shoes as these offer a greater degree of adjustment to allow for feet swelling a little if you have been walking a lot, particularly in hot weather. One other thought is that often people with foot problems choose a very light & flexible pair of shoes, but these offer little support. Some foot problems are better served by a fairly stoutly constructed shoe which, once fully broken in, will be very comfortable but also offer the additional support required.

@TheCityLawyer Год назад

@@jonathanhicks140 very thoughtful comment - thank you. The issue though is with my heels as they protrude slightly, so it takes so much longer for the heel of the shoe to stretch and soften enough so it’s not putting pressure on my heel. Thankfully the rest are completely fine

@williamkazak469 2 года назад

I have been wearing good shoes since high school. I was in a shoe store in Hammond, Indiana. The owner came out with a tan pebble grain and he said; "these are shoes". I was hooked. There was a Church's English Shoes on Wabash in Chicago near Central Camera. I bought many shoes there and I still wear them. Kerry was the owner. He was great to talk to about shoes and taught me about quality. I liked your split toe derby Reindeer.

@alexnw6050 3 года назад

What an absolutely lovely. I absolutely love the Dominic Casey shoes. I would not say the toe shape is traditional, rather that it pays homage to traditional rounded toes. It reminds me of Gaziano and Girling GG06 Last, but with even more shape - beautiful. Also, really like the GC loafers in burgundy (non-alligator ones). It seems like something you could use is a bit more browns, like a nice dark brown or medium-dark brown. Were it me, I might look to add one of the following (in no particular order): 1. Dark Brown, quarter or half-brogue, Oxford 2. Mid to Dark Brown Derby Calf-Skin with a stitched apron 3. Mid to Dark Brown Suede Split Toe Derby 4. Mid to Dark Brown Suede loafer 5. Brown Chelsea Boot I guess if it were my collection I'd have those 5 in mind just because they seem to bridge the gap from chinos to separates to most non-business suits. The Oxford might work less well with chinos and separates, and shoes 3-5 would not work as well with very dark suits. Thinking out loud (so to speak), I'd probably have any of those made in slightly less elongated or more rounded toes shapes. Just some thoughts, for what they're worth.

As I work in a less formal industry here in the UK, my quality shoes and boots (a few divisions lower than yours - mainly Cheaney and Crockett and Jones) tend to be brown. So I'm always interested to see your black cap toe Oxfords, as I style I wouldn't invest in myself. I love split toe Derbys though and those Cleverley Russian Reindeer shoes are the dream. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing your incredible collection Kirby!

@philipnorthfield 2 года назад

You could always try some classic English Northampton bench made shoes I personally like churchs there are lots of very good quality options grenson, Barker's, cheaney and on a budget Loake all decent quality very reasonable prices the full bespoke always seems a little crazy personally as I don't think any bench made shoe is really as comfortable as a decent sneaker anyway and I no longer work in an office environment.

Kirby, as always, great video and fun to enjoy getting to see your collection. A question for you, and you may have addressed this before, you didn't show any monk straps? I'll admit, out of a personal collection that rivals yours in numbers (not quite up to your quality standard yet, so thank you for what you said about off the peg) I only have two pairs of monks, one of them by Edward Green in burgundy is a favorite of mine.

@boblacks945 3 года назад

I am retired and live in south Florida so I normally wear casual loafers for most activities. By the way, if you walk along Worth Avenue in Palm Beach all you will see men wearing are Italian-made loafers. My favorite right now are loafers made out of crocodile skins. You should consider this kind of material also. Everybody says that they are the most beautiful shoes that I have. Both pairs that I own I was able to purchase "gently worn" on Ebay. Otherwise, I could never be able to afford them as they cost over $1,000.

@ardentdfender4116 2 года назад

With this much a shoe collection. You surely never have to repeat wear a pair at maybe once a month maybe or longer. For the average guy starting out with barely even a good first leather pair, it’s tough as that shoe gonna get worn lots! However, a damn nice fine collection. A son would be proud one day to walk in his dads literal shoe steps.

@Sweepdog700 2 года назад

My favourite pair are the Russian Reindeer Split-Toe Derbies. Love the design.

@crisyorke1328 3 года назад

My favorite is definitely the one from Dominic Casey, then the Croc from George Cleverly, though I would have it in formal shoes instead of casual - it could be a little bit of a more exquisitely shaped formal design, but not in casual style. I do like the mock brogue from GC. Like you, I look for unique material that the few boutiques could sourced for - deerskin with historical value is great. What I am not keen on is the few repetitive design, especially with the casual ones - I prefer something that are out there such as Cothay, and Westminster (i believe) from GC. Also having too many formal captoe can get boring.

But, I do love the texture, the elongated style of the shoe and how the little "squares" refract light at different angles. If you could do it all over again, would you change the colour? and just out of curiosity, would you consider wearing them with no-show socks, navy blue linen/cotton/silk/wool blend suit over a white Friday polo in summer? Thanks

Very much enjoyed rewatching this video. I may be wrong, but not sure you showed a punched toe-cap oxford in your collection. You will be aware of the John Lobb catalogue Keikari have placed on the internet, and I was impressed with most of the men's shoes. This probably dates from the 60s, but what they entitle a "Plain Oxford" seems more reminiscent of the 30s, when punching was if anything more common than single or double stitching on the cap. I think I actually prefer it (though most of the punching nowadays seems a bit small to me - New and Lingwood seems about the best on rtw).

Your Dominic Casey shoe is the most beautifil. That is of course my very own subjective opinion. I personally haven't understood all the hype around the chiseled toe shape. Although a lot producers offer a "classic" round toe, most of them look rather flat, as there is little room in the toe box. Carmina's Forest last has a nice shape, but you usually find this refined "old school" classic toe shape only in the higher end of the market.

Never say too many when its something we like. I can see you value all things sartorial. Do you ever dress down to say denim, or lumberjack shirts, chinos, trainers?
