Are these totally awesome or totally not awesome?

Part of me thinks that it would be totally rad to own a pair of Dieppa Restrepo denim oxfords, if only to have head-to-toe Canadian tuxedo capabilities.  But, then, the smarter part of me thinks that that would be not awesome and totally bizarreMaybe I've got prison goggles because they're on sale & in my size.  Advise within.

Um, yes. They are pretty awesome. However, I'd be concerned about how well they'll hold up. I guess you'll have to weigh that with the sale price.

Also, FYI about the fit of DP oxfords, they do run a bit big, but not super large. I typically wear between an 8-8.5 and ordered the 7.5 and they're a bit tight on me.

Yeah, those are pretty rad. I just got a pair of Oxfords. But, uh, from Target. Not as cool.

Not awesome for that price; maybe for leather, but not denim. And the practical side of me sees them getting trashed in a matter of weeks.

Belinda said...

aah, yes they are. But I wouldn't get a pair personally because I can't imagine that they would look good with most jeans, and I live in jeans.

It says on the site that they are leather. Are they?l

as long as they are combined with one denim piece-say, shoes and jeans; or shoes and denim shirt. also, $182 for denim shoes is kind of pricey, but who am i to judge other people's idea of the value of money.

hahahahaaaa I have no advice, I'm just picturing what a head-to-toe canadian tuxedo could look like...has anyone ever done that?

Didn't Brittney & Justin do it for some award show back when they were babies? Justin in denim cowboy hat-suit-ensemble & Britt in a jean prom dress?

I think it was just prison goggles, dudes. $185 seems like WAY too much for a pair of oxfords that I'm not really sold on two days later...
