Welllllll it depends on shades and stuff but would tend to agree. Unless you have earthy colours in your wardrobe it could be easier to get black ones. I would be falling over in long shoes, you'd never know where the end of your foot was =-O
Now you've got impetus to get your tax return done.

No, no earthy colours, blacks, blues, some red and white striped shirts. Though maybe I should go earthy. I look good in brown (or so a girl told me many years ago) but I always equated it with winter and sort of like Ireland peat mossy stout drinking book reading pipe smoking, tweed jacket wearing sort of activities. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Chunky cords, oh chunky cords possibly my favourite cool climate trouser, its too darn hot here for them. Moleskin trousers would also go with this look and they are comfy too. I also find that earthy colours fade well whereas black ends up a patchy grey. avoid leather elbow patches on tweed jackets, just my opinion.

As long as you're getting women's boots, you should get them in pink!

OK OK, you might be a moderator but I'm banning you for six months for that...

Anyway, I've moved past the lady's cowboy boots and now I'm in to the men's earthy Irish stout drinking, Whitman reading pipe smoking, tweed jacket wearing boots...

wellies then, and if you are inclined pink glittery ones, floral ones or novelty ladybird ones.

I just picked up a pair of alden 403 Indy boots.

Been trying to find them for a while. Finally a store had them in my size.

Nice boots, bot sure of I like the stitching but it would darken...

Thanks.

I'm not a big fan of the white also. But I know once I wear them out it will darken up so I'm not too fussed about it.

Mate go to RM Williams in Percy st Prospect !!!
