Weekly Wrap Up – 1/30 – 2/3

Deal of the Week: Florsheim Dividend Single Monk Strap – $84.95* ($90 – $110)

Shoe hogs will turn their nose up at these, but for those guys out there who can’t drop $200, or even $150 on a pair of non foundational shoes… know that I hear ya.  The suede isn’t real rich.  The color is a nice deep brown, but there’s not much depth on the suede.  They still look plenty good, and after a day of wear they’re comfortable.  And the buckle is a nice dull gold.  *Use the oddly long code 483308000505 to save five bucks.  You do have to be logged in as a DSW rewards member, which is nothing more than getting on their email list.  Code SHIPR gets you free shipping.
UPDATE:  Y’know, the Florsheim suedes are nice, but the deal(s) of the week has to be just about any and everything in the CLADmen.com sale over here.

Most Discussed Post:  Las Vegas – The Yes/No Guide to Sin City

Sure the slim cargos post got plenty of comments too, but in the Vegas piece you guys have once again provided a ton of great information by way of the comments.  If you got Las Vegas “right” on your first trip, more power to you.  But for the rest of us, it usually takes a second or third trip to finally figure it out.  One final yes/no:  Cabbies that drive erratically, claim to have once been part of an acrobat troupe that performed on Letterman, and tells cheezy jokes for the entire 10 minute ride down the strip – Yes.  Cabbies that are dead silent and look like Robin Williams in One Hour Photo – No.
