"Yea, although with shoes its your pants, shirt, jacket, belt combo that tends to be the most obvious. I'm pretty partial to the oatmeal and if you like them more than the brown than go for it."

Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Well the great thing with boat shoes is usually you tie them and leave them tied, only retie when they start getting too loose so you can slip them off and on."
Turbo replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Ah! Okay. I'd always wondered if it was just an aesthetic having the shoelaces making an X over the two eyelets and that perhaps some boat shoes didn't actually have laces to tie, that it was more of a slip on sort of routine. Thanks."
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"You'll usually see shoes tied like this when you buy them, the laces tucked down inside. Not really so much a marketing gimmick as just an aesthetic thing."
Turbo replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"So it is just a marketing gimmick then, yeah? Oh well. Thanks for answering my noob question!"
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Good question, I'm not sure. I would think that anything you did to tie the laces inside under the tongue would be horribly uncomfortable and probably do quite a number on your foot as well."
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"My Sebago's are most similar to the Dark Brown and they work well with dark blue jeans. I'm partial to the oatmeal as a nice summer colour though, they'll work well with light coloured pants."
Turbo replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Now that this thread has been resuscitated. I have a question.
I have also been looking into getting a pair of boat shoes as of late and I'm curious if it's possible to wear them with the laces tucked/hidden/however they hell they make…"
Turbo replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"When it comes to this part of the forum I'm not the biggest toad in the water, but I think I have enough sartorial sense to tackle this question.
I reckon the classic brown would go best with dark blue jeans. Black is a bit trickier, but I…"
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Yeah, they are about 10 bucks cheaper there than the Sperry website. Exchange rate is good right now but it was better a few weeks ago, might go back up again in my favour. I'll keep an eye out and see if any stores carry them here and what the…"
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"They will ship to Canada, a little expensive at 19.00 USD but still better than the import fee + shipping charge ar Zappos' Canadian site. Thank you."
Daniel Gaston replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"Anyone know what Brick and Mortar stores, particularly here in Canada, carry Sperry. Hopefully with decent selection of style and colour. Sperry themselves online don't appear to ship to Canada and neither does Zappos. Zappos has a Canadian…"
Michael D. Denny replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion":: cough ::
Nothing says "touron" like boat shoes.
Which ironically, are very poor footwear when one is actually out on a boat."
OHK replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"When I'm wearing pants, I'm wearing socks with my Sperrys. Ya damn right I just said that."
Paul_of_TX replied to Nick Galfano's discussion Boat Shoes Discussion"I have had a few pairs of Sebago boat shoes and they have been great. I have not had a pair of Sperry so I can't compare the two. Which ever one you choose I would have to recommend no socks."

Joseph Casson replied to StaggerLee's discussion Are Muslims Silent or Is The Media Negligent? in the group The Great Debate"The media is always negligent. It makes money that way.
1. Report a story, edited by the media to sell more copies
2. This selective reporting rouses hate amoung the common folk
3. Hate causes riots and other dispute
4. Media makes money reporting…"
Vytautas replied to Jonny's discussion Was putting my dog to sleep the right thing to do?"Sounds like you really want to live the Old Yeller movie. I'm sure you have experience killing animals, but shooting a family member is far from humane. Take him to a vet. It's far better than the option you seem to be hinting at."
Will replied to LShieldes's discussion Run fat boy run"Right out the front door (if it's a place safe to run), and don't beat yourself up if you only run 100 feet. Just do more next time."
Aaron F Kendrick replied to Will's discussion Religious content in Hollywood in the group The Great Debate"Even so, those who are the religious characters are portrayed as psychotic in some way. I have yet to see any program who has been fair much less a leader in any community. In the case of Lucky #Slevin, one of the antagonists (bad guys)…"
Vytautas replied to Vytautas's discussion Favorite Author in the group Latin"I actually don't know too much about the manuscript history of Catullus. Do you happen to know any website or article where I could read about it?And I think you bring up another interesting point about translation: that there is a kind of…"
Carl Monster replied to JSydCarton's discussion And the Fool Speaks"You are in good hands here. Unless you put out ridicule you will receive none, especially if you are genuinely in need of help.
This is not so much an intro but a call for help.
You are right, Bret and his wife have worked hard to fill this site…"
Aaron F Kendrick replied to Will's discussion Religious content in Hollywood in the group The Great Debate"My problem is multi-fold, but the two biggest issues are first, the one you mentioned all religions are the same. Well, they are not and they are. They have different areas they believe to be important, that's all. Religion is…"
