$295 for a leather and flannel shoe? And it's ugly. 
You can do anything, but lay off of my red flannel shoes!

Funny enough, I actually like how that shoe looks and I generally don't like funky shoes. Still way out of both my price range and general style. I'm sure its a very limited release shoe anyways.
In the picture you posted the shoe looks like some kind of novelty lint brush... y'know, the ones with the short red bristles all lapped flat?
There seem to be a lot of those two-tone two-material shoes out there nowadays ... every maker has to try a few options. white with brown or black has been around for ages ...
... and saddle shoes ... but now it seems like shoemakers are trying to run new variations up the flagpole more and more: some good and some ... um ... not.
The one above in OP, is perhaps a "not". IMHO, though, this one is a good one ...

Ack! Whatever were they thinking?
I like the ones that Doc posted. They are rather interesting.
How on earth would your care for a shoe like that, it would be very difficult to use traditional polish and what not.
Where is the " someone at Brooks brothers is going to lose their job" thread?
Isn't the Black Fleece line designed Thom Browne? They clearly haven't seen that thread; the line is still horrific.

I kinda like the red flannel. I have no idea when, or where I would wear them, but I like them.
Wow ... beauty is in the eye of the beholder ... not for me!

it would seem that I'm blind as well. to all of them.
I like the red flannel, even though I could never wear them. They have both a highbrow and lowbrow appeal that is hard to ignore. Perfect for the gentlemen who has everything, except the perfect pair of shoes to wear to the annual hunting lodge dinner.

And why did a mod change the title of my thread? I think it was "Allen-Edmonds Ugly Shoes." Come on, is that really offensive?
