i'm not a huge fan of patent leather. true, i'm not a huge fan of leather in general, but i think it wears beautifully and well for footwear. i can understand the appeal of high-gloss brand-new looking patent leather, but i know i'd ruin it with smudge marks, creases and other horrors. plus, i can't shake the feeling that patent leather is for small children, no matter how expensive and well-exectued it is. in the end, i think simple is best when it comes to objects of everyday use. if someone gave me $700, i would definitely buy these Loeffler Randall boots in cuoio. they would look fantastic after a few seasons of wear.

I am not a fan of patent leather either, but I love each of these.
Gosh, I love LOVE those LR boots in the middle, I keep trying to figure a good reason to spend that much on them though.
