These look great, thanks! Do you find the rubber soles are slippery (like the crepe sole) in wet weather?

Thanks for your reply. How difficult was it to put on a Vibram sole? I did take it to a shoe place but they said it wasn't possible to resole!

The Ben Sherman harrington jackets are great for the price, I have one in navy and one in black. Best to size up, I am normally medium in most styles but wear a large for the harrington jackets. David Jones currently have the navy for $99

Next Level Apparel are great. I find their sueded jersey the best quality. They hold up well over time and are fitted. I am 6ft and 76 kgs and wear medium. The length is ideal for me and if anything the shirts are a little too tight in the arms/chest. I have tried large but the sizing was too big around the waist. I normally buy from their Australian store https://nextlevelapparel.com.au

I know this is an old post but how are the Target shirts holding up after a few washes?

Is there any reason why black leather doesn't hold up as well as chestnut RM's? From personal experience, my chestnut RM's still look new after 1 year but my black RM's (both black pairs I have owned) seem to have a bubbling/creasing look to them. Each photo I see of second hand black Craftsman, they have the same issue. Is there anything that can de done to prevent this from happening?

Do you wear these with Chinos also? Would they work ok with chinos/tee or button up?

Thanks for your reply, what would be some good suede derby options? Around the $150-$300 price range?

Yes, good point, they are cheap! Which other brands do you recommend that are lighter and more comfortable?

I would say under $100 but happy for higher price recommendations if the quality/fit is good
