    Those are beautiful shoes! And I would second MacMillan's advice, a thin rubber sole can save you from slipping disasters. (Wearing the kilt and leather-soled shoes, a light mist falling, a little slip... people saw more than they had planned. What to say?)

    Good advice.

    I do prefer leather soles, but I had never thought about having rubber attached aftermarket...good tip MoR!

    I expect to get a lot of use out them at work too...in addition to kilt wear. I think they'll look great with grey or blue! By the way...They are Florsheim Marlton's, for anybody that might want to know...realized that I hadn't said what kind they are.
