What is the average price for a pair of shoes?
Depends on the material: calf, shell, or rare skins.

An average calf shoe should run around $500. Shell shoes should be $700 or 800. Shell boots around &1k.

Great shoes at great prices. I would put them near Crockett and Jones Hand grade.
 
Is it just me or did this dude post the same 4 pics of the store 3x each? :lol:

Good looking out, they didn't post like that originally. Fixed it now.

Like Wis said about $500 for Calf and upwards. Got these for a pretty good deal on these, they came out to about $325-340 as I got 10% off due to some discoloration on the toe which I didn't even notice they pointed out plus I got about another 10% back at the airport as it's tax free for tourists once the conversion, discount and Vat were returned.

TheShoemart has some Carmina options for about $299, limited sizes.

The quality on their shoe is amazing and I can see why people drop $500 on them so easily. The fact that I got them in the low to mid 300's I wasn't even going to think twice.

The one thing that you guys might not be aware of about Spaniards s that spending $300-$500 on shoes is pretty normal. It's pretty common in Spain for people to spend quite a bit of money on clothing but rotate it and it's pretty common for them to see them wearing the same article of clothing couple times a week. It was unusual to see in stores, men's dress shoes that were 1. below $160 Euros; the average being about $180 Euros ($210-230 US) and 2. Not goodyear welted. Some brands I'd never heard of and the only non-Goodyear welt shoes were Florsheim's (only seen at 1 store). No squared toe shoes, and sneakers were a rare sight.

Dude has some feedback on the site all positive so i dont want to throw dirt in case he's telling the truth. It's possible for the post office to come by and not leave a slip since my post office have done that in the past but without a tracking there's no way I'm able to pick it up

I was thinking of waiting until Saturday night before asking for a refund or file with paypal 

What are your takes?
 
I didn't read the whole text because I'm on mobile and without spacing, it's hard to read such a long paragraph.

I would contact LA Guy. Fok is the owner of the site. I'm sure he can help.
 
Excuse my ignorance, but a black tux with w/ white shirt and black bow tie is acceptable dress for a wedding right?

Going to a wedding next month, this is my first one since I was like 8 years old. :lol:

Not sure if I should go with that, or go with a navy or charcoal suit.

:rofl: :rofl:

Unless the wedding is Black Tie, I'd skip the tux and go with the navy or grey suit.

This. In all the weddings I've attended in the past year that weren't Black Tie, the only people wearing tuxes were grooms, groomsmen and fathers of the couple.
 
Ps for my wedding's pre wedding shoot, we gonna be in suit jackets, 5" inseam shorts and Foams. Some of you cats are expected to be there.
 
Most aren't a fan of the blue suit with black shoes/boots look, but I'm a convert:



I like the look and I agree with you man, I def actually prefer the black depending on the situation and shade of blue. Nice!!
