Bespoke Cleverley Brogues

The photographic image (at left) depicts a bespoke pair of brogues from Cleverley in a virgin calf's blood merlot colour. From initial meeting to delivery took approximately 9 months. It was well worth the wait. They fit like a glove, as well they should. I call this pair my "Banker Shoes." The dark blood shade symbolises the psychological blood-letting that occurs when I have to deal with recalcitrant clients who spend money on utterly frivolous things such as sports cars, jets, and (worst of all) hot girlfriends. The sharp Cleverley chisel toe is handy for kicking such clients in the backside and then making up over cocktails afterwards in a tony part of town.

  1. Admiral, beautiful colour! I need some dark blood shade shoes to go on pro-blood sports and anti-lower middle classes marches.

  2. First of all, three cheers for your blog. We share precisely the same taste in clothes, art, and politics. Now, may I suggest a somewhat delicate topic, namely that of male undergarments? What are the knickers of choice for a fogey?

  3. Leanfittop ~ Thank you for your kind words. Boxer shorts are acceptable, especially in Tweed. Thicker the better. You may have to endure some chafing. Avoid anything in satin and frills.
