Picked up the Tech Grey/ Summit White Airships. I believe the simplistic, laid-back, casual appearance of these lend well to a nice wardrobe. Pairing the roughed out suede on these with my grey cords on a crisp day: the textures.:ohlawd:

Just picked these up from Meermin


Very versatile Chelsea boots that have a bit more of a casual feel to em but can still be dressed up. They’re very comfortable to wear out the box.

Doc Martens and rounder toes are in right now (goes well with the baggy trend) but I like these as they’re more classic in styling and won’t go in and out of style.

Copping these next two from Meermin. They have great shoes at quality prices. I highly recommend them.


How are the loafers holding up?

all these brands sharking margiela
Margiela gotta improve the quality in their Replicas. Jacked the price up $750 from $500 but the quality is mid at best.

I have this version below and after 6 months of light wear (like once every other week) the soles started to separate from the uppers near the pinky toe area. Had to get my cobbler to fix em up. Granted I have wider feet but still…

Very well, I’m quite happy with my purchase. Great value for money and comfortable to wear out the box.

Damn margiela has fallen off with quality?

All mine were bought around 4ish years ago during covid and theyre holding up well


Noted on the loafers, unfortunately they dont have my size (us 14)

I got mine 3ish years ago and it took less than a year for separation. It might just be because I have wider feet.

Took em to get repaired at the Margiela store in SF and they said I was on my own

Thats wild, i have 3 pairs and no issues. I did notice the price jump though. I'm reluctant to pull the trigger on another pair unless i can find them on sale like the ones i got
