    I'm not so sure about the brogues with the tartan inset, though perhaps if it were the right tartan. But I absolutely love those tweed shoes!

    Re: Harris tweed shoes

    The tweed shoes are very cool, and I'd probably pick a pair up, provided they were in my price range, but what really caught my eye were the boots in the background!

    Yeah, that's what I don't get about the whole tweed shoe craze that seems to be happening.

    Maybe it's just because I'm a country bumpkin, live on a dirt road, and have horses, but I couldn't imagine trying to maintain a pair of shoes made out of tweed. They'd be stained permanently within a week or two of owning them (and that's assuming I don't even wear them to muck stalls!). Just walking to my car each morning and evening gets my shoes dusty. Tweed is definitely going to catch every bit of dust and mud, not to mention all the grass burrs!

    I do like the look of these tweed shoes much better than the Nike ones. But they are just impractical for folks whose shoes actually get dirty.

    Not bad but I just think tweed belongs on a jacket.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.
