    No kilt yet but more shoes

    While waiting for my first kilt I’ve been looking for new dress shoes. The soles are so flimsy on the ones I’m currently wearing my metatarsals get soar. Today I broke down and did what I should have done years ago. I bought my first pair of Allen Edmonds brogues. I can’t believe how comfortable they are right out of the box. The Player’s model is 36 percent off at Nordstrom’s. Apparently they are overstocked. Now I just need to research the threads that discuss caring for them.

    This jonesing is getting expensive. Two pairs of shoes in a month. All in favor say neigh.

    I too bought some Allen Edmonds and was amazed at the comfort straight out of the box. Granted, I've not had a bunch of quality footwear, but these are certainly much better-feeling than I'd anticipated.

    May have to see Nordstrom's about their over-stock situation ...
