Yes or No?

Outfit is very nice, but a bigger picture would help : impossible actually to see the shoes properly.
What is their price ?

[maldoror]

if you want a pair of augustas, this is the pair to get.

If you want to get a pair of Augusta and do not have at least one choice in mind isn't it clear that you're just buying for the brand name?

Good point.

Still, if a person wants Augusta, then you should buy Augusta. Besides if you are in the price point for those boots, you probably could afford just about any pair from any designer.

I say Yes.

no, I don't think that's clear. it could also be that you are attracted to the general aesthetic of the line, but are not sure exactly which iteration thereof is your favorite. rip-off factor be damned, augusta does have a distinct family aesthetic this season, principally in terms of leather treatments and finish, but also in terms silhouette, fit, etc. they also offer a wide variety of variations on a theme, with far more options than any other SZ family footwear line.

personally, I'm not a big fan of the f/w 08 augusta aesthetic, but I respect how someone else could be. and, I think that if said person were going to get a pair of these shoes, the ones which RADO posted, being the straight up, no frills lace-up boots are the ones to get. this is why I said yes for him (even though they would be no for me)

EDIT: or maybe you thought my reply to RADO was an independent yes or no request?

m.a+ leather shirt or accordian bag ?

I would go with the shirt.. I've never been that big of fan of the accordian bag, and if anything I would just wait to see if Chinorlz makes one, or follow the DIY and make one.

No way. Never. I'm sorry, but MA+ accordian bag? talk about a signature, museum-worthy piece. This is what everyone will be talking about years after Amadei retires. Get them while you can, because you will never see anything like them again. EVER.

It's a tough call between the two...

The leather shirts from last season from Amadei are REALLY nice. Really nice.

The accordion bags are the quintessential MA+ bag, at the same time they're way $$$ for what you get.

If $$ is no object, the accordion bag is the way to go.

Carpe Diem Leather Shirt AND M.A+ Leather Accordion Bag...

Carpe Diem Leather Shirt > M.A+ Leather Shirt... and by a substantial margin...

[jcotteri]

[reborn]

Leather shirts are a dime a dozen.

Go for the bag.

[DHC]
