Today's Shoes

Brooks Brothers Peal & Co. three-eyelet unlined chukka boots in tan suede with crepe rubber soles. Ultimately, I think that these are going to be very comfortable shoes, particularly for walking on cement, because of the spongy rubber soles, but they have two problems. The first is that they are made from tan suede, which will show water spots and other stains very readily. The second is that the crepe rubber soles are light yellow and show in excruciating detail just how filthy the streets, parking lots, and sidewalks of Houston are. Oh, well. They'll be easier to care for than white bucks, at least.
