Thank you sir, and I'll have to remember that one for the next pair of shoes or watch that I want. LOL

According to my wife, the ability to accessorize is what separates us from our primitive ancestors.

Speaking of which I'm hoping to have my latest pointy accessory in a week to two. I ordered it back in March so the long wait is almost over with.

So just the ability right...not having to actually follow through? That is great. My Rolex/Crocs boat shoes are a fair enough combo then.

Boat shoes can work as well, but I like Rancourt and Cordovan

As much as I enjoy nice shoes and dressing up a little, it would not fit in at work. I can come to work in t-shirt, flip flops, and shorts and nobody takes a second look. If I work any type of nice shoes, khakis, or much more than a polo, and people would think there is trouble at the bank or someone died.

I think he means polished. You apply polish and shine them. Something fathers used to teach their sons back in the day.

Thanks for the advice. I've never heard of this so called "polish" for shoes.
