Would you wear it? The $30 casual saddle medallion

Urban Outfitters Brogue Saddle Oxford – $29.99 ($68.00)

There’s a lot of gray area between sneakers and dress shoes.  Finding a few pairs of slightly out of the ordinary laceups to go with jeans and chinos is an incredibly easy way to upgrade your look when away from work.

These look like a blend of the Sebago Brattle ($61.20 w/ code ALAUGUST1 through Sierra Trading Post) and the Cole Haan Henry.  But that’s not exactly saying that they look like a blend of Rachel Weisz and Erin Andrews.

May God have mercy on us all if such a creature were ever to come to be.

Back to the $30 shoes.  They were $70.  Which is already cheap for a shoe.  Haven’t seen em’ in person either.  They look… like they could be either odd in a good way, or odd in a dreadful way.  Might look a lot better after they get beat up.  Maybe take them outside post purchase and throw them up against a brick wall 5 or 10 times.

But would you wear them?  Leave your vote in the comments below.
