[endersgame]

where to kop replacement duct tape??

and how fast can you say "A DICIANNOVEVENTITRE" 3x in a row?

[zamb]

I like the first bag alot, not sold on the second one and would love to see it in person
Also like most of the boots, especially this pair:


Don't like any of the sneakers, I also prefer the name "Augusta" to the new name.
Must also say I will be getting my first pair of Augustas sometime this week, will be an interesting experience as i do like the Structured look and feel of his work

vassily who works with simone was wearing these boots at the layers opening party and they looked fantastic on....been thinking about these and the single piece leather lace-ups....i think both stars of the upcoming season......

the textures and treaments on some of the leathers are beautiful

not sure about the metal eyelets on the boots.....i feel it takes them one step closer to doc martins....dare i say it...

Augusta shoes

Does anyone have stocklist for women?

Dig the linen over leather, as usual.

I'm curious how the spiderweb shoes would look after wearing them in the rain.

I like the 10-hole scarred boots and the 'cracked desert' leather used looks awesome as well.

If you put the laces from the sneakers in the the ductape shoes and remove the tape, they look like some other infamous derbies.

Duct tape

I'd love to walk into a cobbler with the duct tape shoe and ask him to repair it to see how he responds.

dunno if this has been discussed before, but Augusta was such a nice name......

As I've mentioned in the past, I dig the experimentation that goes on at Augusta with the textures, materials and processes. It's pretty ballsy considering that most people looking for an expensive boot want the traditional, standard boot with classic styling and serious craftsmanship.

Even the sneakers are interesting...I respect it mostly because it shows there's still a dedication to that experimental art direction that drives most creativity and new development. I'm sure many of them end up on the clearance list but in today's environment with the economy still recovering, it's cool to see people sticking with that sense of creativity, not afraid to blow it just because it's not popular.

what are you blowing your brains out about?

[lowrey]

where is the picture from? I'm 98% sure I didn't see a boot like that in their showroom 2 days ago.

[kunk75]

anyone have any idea who will be carrying the leathers? have to assume they will be pretty special given his leatherwork

Not trying to be a pain, but do people here really wear $2,000 boots out in the rain? I lthink they are calling that the "spun sugar" effect - I dig the boots but I don't have enough great shoes/boots to add something like that (given the money) to my wardrobe.

duct tape is a bit much but the rest of the collection looks pretty stellar.

it often rains without warning. Even Sam Champion is not perfect.
