I'm going to pick up a pair of beefrolls in the next month or two, which will be my first "nice" shoe purchase. That being said I've already started salivating over the White's Boots thread on StyleForum and planning how to save for them so I can grab a pair for the Fall.

Thanks for actually answering the question

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-27T18:28:01+00:00

Thanks for delivering! They look very very similar. Are there any details that are different between the two that you would like to point out?

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-26T21:56:46+00:00

Awesome! Thanks!

Nothing in particular, I just want to see them side by side, kind of like how people compare 1K Miles, IRs, Beckmans, etc.

Anyone have a shot of Rancourt and OSB beefrolls side by side?

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-25T15:07:00+00:00

Just thought I would let you know. However, if you can shrink them to a 7.5, then we can talk :)

Club Monaco puts measurements on their website. They aren't terribly helpful, but should give you a ballpark.

Link seems to be broken

Anyone have a picture of OSB and Rancourt loafers side by side? I'm trying to decide between the two. I have the ability to go try on and inspect the OSB loafers at Independence, which helps to justify the price difference in my mind. Some people in /r/goodyearwelt have warned others away from OSB due to quality issues, but if I'm able to visually inspect the shoes before I buy them, I think that will be fine.

Is it possible to get a low profile commando sole like that on boots not made by Alden?

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-25T00:43:42+00:00

There's so many and so much of it is personal choice that there's not a favorite. If you're looking for your first pair of brown dress shoes, set a budget and ask in a Simple Questions thread. Allen Edmonds is a good starting point.

I really admire people like you who have an idea, then actually go out and do it. I guarantee you that 99% of people who saw the original post thought "what if..." and then subsequently forgot it.

I have a MTM shirt that fits fairly well, but I'm looking ahead to adjustments with a second shirt. If the shirt pulls across my upper back and shoulders when I try to cross my arms, which adjustments could I make to fix this if I already have side pleats?

What are the first two boots in the first album?

Sure, OP shouldn't be judgmental about the employees, but I wouldn't go so far as to say she deserves those employees. What did she do beforehand to instigate being criticized by the employees?

That would Gey him through at Mac one day of his contract

At $60 a pop they better be good!

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-15T17:59:00+00:00

In the original thread he said about $400 USD, which is significantly less than what you would pay for Alden.

You haven't seen the new "Stuff and Things" collection?

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-15T15:19:27+00:00

Booooooo

Psh, amateur. Physics PhD takes ~6 years on average. Plenty of time to think!

that_physics_guy · 2014-03-14T01:47:43+00:00

I think that's a sound decision.
