It's winter. Shoes get dirty in winter.

Does that mean you shouldn't clean them? It's mostly concrete in New York City not mud like Buffalo.

Doesn't mean you shouldn't clean them but by the time you get to work they are going to be thrashed anyways. Even if it's not muddy the snow/salt makes them look beat.

just have the mexican clean them for you when you get to work

Properly applying wax to good leather protects it. You may have to clean and polish more often in the winter but it'll keep the shoes looking good. You can opt for rain boots but I don't think I have the attitude to wear them without feeling gay.

If it snows out I'll wear bean boots (a man's boot), and change shoes at work. My brown shows are just busted to pieces really, they need more than a shine and a wax. I might need to retire them.

I've just been wearing Keds to work lately anyway. Nobody has said anything

[Tones]

Keds? Are you a female kindergarten student or teacher?

[cigsthecat]

Now now, maybe he's a Dental Hygienist.

I bought them because Richard Dreyfus wears them in Jaws. Navy Keds.

I dunno.

This morning I got dressed and thought I was looking pretty good in my gray slacks and gray and white shirt. Black wing tips lookin all okay.

Then I get on the subway and realize that I'm wearing brown pants and look retarded.

[Razor Ramon]

Horrible. You're lucky I didn't see you. Although I'm wearing a band tee and jeans.

I need new sunglasses. Suggestions?
