re: Looking for summer shoes/ Ransom by adidas Originals The Valley Lo

We have been discussing summer shoes and I think that this might be a contender. I like the simplicity and the color, and I like that it is something different. They look comfortable, which as of late, has become something increasingly important to me.

//h black keychains

Made these tonight. I like the black leather, something different. The dark brown latigo leather is also a nice change from the regular tan. I like darker leather, but I will always love tan/natural because of how well it ages. I also added a picture of the shoulder of cow that will hopefully one day be transformed into more useful items.

LL Bean: Katahdin Iron Works Engineer Boots

Found these while browsing LL Bean. Not sure that I'm sold on the toe cap but I like the boot as a whole. Once again, decent prices for more than decent quality from LL Bean. First pic is from the LL Bean website. Second pic was googled. Turns out its from Sufu.

Penfield Vassan 2-tone

I guess this was on Selectism two days ago. I missed it. I stumbled across this jacket while on the Penfield website today. Finding myself increasingly curious towards outerwear the past couple of days. Probably because the weather has been shit and my jackets do nothing to keep me warm so I end up layering everyday. Decently priced too. I'd like to pick something like this up. Probably wait until next season though.

Adidas Nizza High

It's been a very longtime since I have seen any sneakers that really catch my eye. I'm excited with the direction that Adidas is taking these days. They are releasing way more fresh shit than Nike is in my opinion.

Our Legacy 6 Hole Lace-up Boot

Yet another alternative to the desert boot. This time a high version with six-hole lace-up. It keeps the same silhouette as a DB but offers a more outdoor aesthetic. This is probably my ideal height for a boot, anything higher and it becomes awkward with jeans. I have to agree with the earlier post on thicker soles, I am more partial to thinner soles such as these.
