Just doing my part for the menswear trend.



What do you call these? Loafers? Brogues? All I know is that they are Adorable and Everyone Is Wearing Them. And since I needed shoes that weren't ballerinas, they are Now Mine.

Viva Berlin.

They're brouges due to having a patterned toes, and are a separate section- the holes in it. Loafers are one piece of leather.

proper brouges also have laces that go halfway up the calf with tassels at the end of the laces.

I thought they were brogues.

Oh! I would have called them Oxfords but I accept the erudition of bucket-traill. I also call them FABULOUS.

Oxfords! You know, they're Oxford-brogues. Let's just go with that. :)

Whatever they're called, I love them so much.

that interviewing technique, beginning with a dopey question, would stress anyone out.......I thought he handled it very professionally and with charm (of course)...... enough already.....hope he was joking, and that he still has his Fuessen on the Teppich. Maybe he needs shoes like yours..........
