From left to right, my very own Ashcott boots in Oakwood Suede, Wallabees in Ebony Suede, and Desert Boots in Cola Suede. Easy on the feet, and very easy on the pocket, available direct from the Clarks website.
This handsome pair of Grenson Headingly brogues was bought last September as a splurge when I was visiting the seaside town of Aldeburgh in Suffolk. At first, these absolutely crippled me (not least financially) and I could only wear them for around 15 minutes before hobbling around in pain. But now they fit like the proverbial glove, and the leather has taken on a very pleasing patina.
