    Instead of buying them used, have you checked out Penny's of Thunderbay? http://www.pennys.ca/accessories.php May not be the best, but I am sure it will make do. I can't comment on their products yet, as my order from 3 weeks ago has not arrived yet.

    Oatmeal:
    Unfortunately, the link you gave me has shoes up to one size too small for me. I can wear a UK size 12/US 13, but I often opt for larger if I can. I am also thinking about searching for some brown brogues... I have seen them! Given that a good chunk of nice accessories are going to be brown (and I like brown leather), a set of brown brogues would really set everything off nicely, and lend a "dressier" air to everything. Anyone know a place w/ these? Tartan Museum, or Scotwebstore? It seems that WPG was out of size 12 brogues, so if I am going to pay full price, I might as well get one of the varieties I have really taken a liking too. For the record, I also like the Glenfinnans, but would need to save for about a month, and take some really precise measurements before dumping $250 on a pair of *nice* shoes.

    Oooh! Nevermind! I found a nice pair of brownies from heritage of scotland. Hopefully this is a regularly stocked item (found it on ebay)... totally checking with their main site. Offered in sizes larger than I need as opposed to just large enough... with luck, next payday.
