I’m not huge into sneakers but sometimes I like some comfort. Got a pair of these guys in their way to me.

My wife has already determined them of be “old man Dad shoes”.

Danish Glerups felt boots. So comfortable.

You mean... none of your shoes are comfortable?

Haha. I have plenty of comfortable shoes but few of them are sneakers. I probably have two pairs (if you don’t include running shoes) and a pair of AllBirds I use (or used to use) for long haul flights.

That might be my fave set up.

Totally agree, thanks. When I got the shoes, I conducted a poll among friends on what laces to wear first lol My cousin and I said orange, right off the bat. This is the first time wearing the orange, but they pop beautifully. I don't own a single piece of orange clothing, and I'm sick of being asked if I'm a whomever fan, but I like the contrast

... and what’s wrong with that?

If the shoe (or in this case, sneaker) fits...

I can't believe that you got your shoes out of focus! Nice plant though.

I just re-laced my nubucks tonight and then saw your post!

What kind of laces are those? Original or new? I would like to replace mine.

These were sold under Churchill’s label. It was Church’s “casual“ brand for a short time in the 1990s. It lasted a few years and disappeared. The laces are original. The sole and uppers are in good shape. I had a cobbler replace the worn heels a few years ago and the red matches well. Otherwise they are holding up pretty well. Probably an excessively large rotation helps! I’ll try to get a few miles on them this year.

This was my “shoe of the day” in June of 2020. That was possibly the last time I wore them. (No wonder my shoes last 20 years.)

The AE Orlean nubucks (which I think are discontinued) definitely don’t see a lot of action. I need to get them into the rotation more often. It a nice-looking comfortable shoe.
