Jeffrey~West shoes

i used to swear by Alfred Sargent, but I have a pair of Barker Westfield tan brogues and they are awesome.
and i agree -
sharp suit + cheap unpolished/scuffed/worn at the back shoes = untrustworthy

Scooby Regular
and I don't tend to run much in brogues
Shoes are V important imho
Interestingly an ex Immigration Officer wrote a book about his experiences on the immigration desk at Heathrow
It was called “Refusal Shoes” – the first thing he did when assessing someone was to look at their shoes as, in his estimation **** tatty shoes were a sure sign of a wrongun
Anyway as my dad said to me
Buy expensive/quality shoes and beds – because if you are not in one you are in the other

Les, I totally understand where you're coming from (or going to..), but these 'expensive' shoes really are quality, generally hand made in the UK, and you won't end up buying a new pair every year.
In fact, if looked after, I'd go as far as to say they could last you a lifetime.
Anyway, just been into Flannels in Notts and they haven't got many shoes in at the moment. (although they did have some 'Gaydar' Dolce & Gabbana ones.. )
I'm certainly not going to buy any via mail order so I'll just have to wait for my weekend away in Manchester/London next month.
