    Noice. I want a new pair of deckies. Scrimping on a Burton's pair didn't really work, and they've become my fall back pair for grubby nights out where they'll accumulate all types of vomit, piss, mud and alcohol. Would like to go for the real deal, eg a pair of Sperry or Sebago shoes. But to pay for the brand? Haha.
    Tbh this is my first pair of boat shoes. i ordered some from topman that loked decent on the website and looked good at home, but when you try them on they feel flimsy and just dont fit right. I wouldn't have bought these but for £40 after vouchers and **** its fine i think.

    Gutted i missed the timberland boat shoes for ~£35 in asos i while back before discounts.

    They look bloody awful. Like something a grandmother would wear in the conservatory.

    Would these be good boat shoes? I'm not particularly a big fan of boat shoes tbh but I just fancied trying them out. Don't ask why

    I don't like them. I just have deck shoes, shiny leather shoes and my trainers. Oh and some boots lol.

    The ropey sole makes it different to a lot of other shoes out there so yeah give em a go.

    Where's the best place to buy jeans? I know the weather is warm but I need a new pair badly. I want a nice fit - not too tight or too baggy. So hard buying jeans!

    If by grandmother you mean stylish bastard and by conservatory you mean the Riviera then yes, your statement is accurate.

    Wow. A thread number 3

    I'm pretty impressed with print tees at the moment, just because there so cheap and they can make an outfit look completely different just by the image and colour

    I like the style in principle, but I think it would work better in a more neutral colour.


    Please wear them with short shorts and shin length black socks, that would be awesome.

    Bought these today from TK Maxx for £25. I was very impressed with the current stock. Loads of stuff I wanted but couldn't afford

    Also, there's a shop in Leeds selling Supreme Tees and next door is selling fakes for £8 and the tension between them is hilarious. They also have fake Viv Westwood Tees which look appalling!

    I do indeed live in Leeds.

    We have some cool little vintage shops where you can pick up some absolute bargains!

    Then there are all the high street stores such as Topman, RI, Burton, TK Maxx, JJB, Sports Direct, H&M blahdy blah.

    GAP, Fat Face, Quicksilver, Flannels, Harvey Nics, ZARA, Debenhams, House Of Fraser, TM Lewin, Slaters, All saints.

    It really depends what you want to be honest!

    What the quality of ZARA shoes like?
