        both are sneakers so they are much less durable than shoes/boots. The ccp drips end up having the drips ruby off on the sole and seem to be a bit fragile. While the ramones are bigger and built on a regular rubber sole. Both will wear out to a degree and have their issues.

        I think the ramones are possibly tougher but CCP drips are 100x cooler looking.

            Thanks for your help! I think what's more important is what looks better when beat up

But then I have to get a new watch with a tan strap, and a new belt, and then the question becomes do I get a bronze belt buckle with a tan belt or silver, all relative to if I get a bronze or silver watch with the tan band.

              Fuck. Sorry.

              What nice low cut shoes to wear with fitted raw denim?
              penny loafers come to mind

                well ccp i'd say but the sneaker is very boot like, the ram one is closer to true sneaker and can be had for much cheaper

                      The Chelseas look fine, but the black penny loafers feel a bit odd. It just seems like black wingtips... trying to dress up what's normally casual. Maybe Thom Browne longwings, but otherwise...

                      I'd definitely think a tan, brown, or cordovan color like http://www.sanders-uk.com/shop/produ...-aldwych-8128r would be better. Maybe even rub them with black polish to give them that more oxblood look.

                          not sure if this is the best place to put this but since not many people follow women sizing thread, guess i should post it here. want to purchase a paul harnden blazer for my wife, she is 171cm and 57kg, not sure which size should she wear? Also, any store carries paul harden?many thanks!

                            I have a Guidi messenger bag (M10?) and the dye continues to rub off onto clothing

                            Would appreciate any advice on how to fix this. Thank you.

                              I disagree – you just have to wear them with the right attitude ("f u all") and maybe don´t care for them too much. You´ll be fine.

                                for starters, only wear all black.

                                you could possibly also try washing it a few times gently - in the sink, in cold water, with a bit of leather-cleaning soap. i take no responsibility for the outcome though...
