Would you wear it? The Lug Sole Suede Wingtip

Savile Row Co. Wingtip – $69.94 (reg. $160.00)

Huh… looks kinda like these only with snow tires.

DSW is having a 50% off clearance sale and while some of what they’re offering at half price is downright embarrassing, there’s a couple of pairs that might catch your eye.

But as is almost always the case, there’s a reason why something gets marked down this far.  With these from Savile Row, it has to be that peeled-off-a-hiking-boot lug sole.

It looks a little more (read: too) aggressive on the cognac and black leather versions, and it’s certainly an oddity to see on suede.  But at under $70 with the free shipping code SHIPR (after you sign up for their emails… you can always unsubscribe right away) is the lug sole still a deal breaker?  Or… is it a unique detail that’ll fit in come autumn?

For reference. What the cognac leather version looks like from the top.
