    I think these may just be the sharpest looking casual kilt shoes ever - and you too can own a pair.
    The next time you are in the UK with a spare £160 think about adding these to your kollection!

    I've always like chunky lug soles on blucher type shoes. I also love the pebbled leather. I'm not sure how I feel about the tongue flap, though.

    Kind of reminds me of logger boots with the tops cut off. However, they might be worth a go. They look comfortable and able to stand up to a good walk in the woods.

    The big tongue makes up for all those ghillie brogues what got none by nature.

    I like 'em! I just wish they had a more casual-soled shoe too...

    $320 seems a bit much for hiking boots with a tassle

    Ooooh. I like those. I like the chunky 'Piper' sole on them, too.

    Those are pretty nice, but the flap reminds me of old-timey golf shoes.
