The Clothes Thread.


Recommended Posts


Recently I've found myself getting drawn to boat shoes. In the past Ive always despised the look of the things but Im contemplating getting a pair for the summer.

 

Fuck sake.

 

Boat shoes are timeless classics. Utilitarian in their simplicity, but acceptable anywhere from a blue collar workplace to high tea at the polo club.

 

Running to discrete shades, with usually nothing like the garish nightmare designs and colours that identify the 'Trainer', the Boat Shoe says, "Fuck you... I'm a Boat Shoe"

 

Usually I'm more into heavy duty boots of the Caterpillar and Timberland variety, but with the hot, summer days coming in there's nothing as comfortable and unassuming as the Boat Shoe, with or without socks. It helps the wearer avoid the Old Man Shoe, the Horrendous Trainer, and the What The Fuck Sandals that dominate the landscape.

 

The Boat Shoe.

 

Just be careful in your choice of Boat Shoe, SH. You don't want some heavy, leathern monstrosity that seem to be the preferred footwear of the Pedophile and the animal molester. Make sure you get a nice canvas number, something that can breathe, and be sure it's not some squalid color that makes you look like a pimp from some shady Amsterdam back street bordello. A blue or a beige. Tremendous.

 

 

 

 

Yes

Your 'Merican spelling / spellcheck has created a delicious irony

 

After many years in the US my spelling has taken on a bastardised form that satisfies no-one, least of all myself.

 

I continue to refuse to be drawn otherwise.
