        shoes have a set pitch which you can't really mess with too much, if I were you i'd get a rubber sole piece added to the forepart of the shoe, shouldn't be thicker than 1-2mm. I would leave the heel as is until you wear it down a little. In order to have a rubber top piece you'll need to remove the same amount of leather as you plan to install rubber, plus the thickness of the rubber forepart. A thin layer on the heel will wear out in a couple of weeks and is essentially useless.

                they look fun... can't tell the texture from the yoox shot though. How do they look paired with even LUC button ups?

                  It is woven from a raw silk so it has an extremely coarse texture. If you have handled the raw silk scarves from that same season, you will know what I mean. I have been very tempted to pick one up but I am sure that very limited usage would eventuate. I think it may look a little sloppy with a LUC shirt but could work to break up the razor sharpness of a CCP suit and shirt.

                    thanks for the description :)

                    I do wish that I bought the kangaroo leather object dyed, overlocked CCP tie a few seasons ago... sold on yahoo for not too bad. Now THAT's a fun piece to wear hahahaha

                      Wait, what about the CCP human hair tie? That surely beats every tie out there in the market, no?

                              Barneys. That's it.

                              Otherwise, just enjoy the gambling, drinking, and partying. :)

                                yeah, barney's is the only worthwhile stop and its good for all of 5 minutes. Oh wait, did someone mention a shop carrying GL?
                                I don't know. I'd just jump on the tables and be sure to order a scotch everytime a server comes around. Hope you have fun double fisting fine spirits and coming up on chips homi! Good luck!
