    Looking for Buckles for Mess/Dress Brogues

    Hey Rabble,

    Does anyone know a source for replacement buckles for Mess/Dress Buckle Brogues? Mine are all scuffed up.

    Heya Scotch,

    I'm not quite sure if they got it on their site (www.carrynette.com), but if you email them (Info@carrynette.com) they'll surely be able to help you. They're a dutch company and as of such the site is not available in english yet. The english is no problem when e-mail or phone is used - they all speak perfect english.

    Just email them and ask them if they can help you!

    Try Bugpiper@aol.com He is a friend of mine!
    The 'Eathen in his idleness bows down to wood and stone,
    'E don't obey no orders unless they is his own,
    He keeps his side arms awful,
    And he leaves them all about,
    Until up comes the Regiment and kicks the 'Eathen out.

    You might also check out your local antique mall for a set of lady's shoe buckles as they are generally the same size. Expect to pay $25-$50 for a nice pair.
