Stylish sandals for walking all day

Though, I love my Tevas for how well it pairs with my clothes, it's more of a Converse-type shoe for sandals, if that makes sense.

The closest upgrade I found was Chacos wayfarer. Leather material with arch support. But it was discontinued.

Now, there are leather sandals galore in Nordstrom, but (1) too expensive and (2) not good for all day walking.

So, I need something in the middle.

Something under $150.

Do you have one in mind?

PS...I will be traveling across Asia for 4 months. A LOT of walking.

Has anyone shopped on ChicTee?

Hey yall, im new here and I just wanted to ask a question.

Couple of days ago, i was scrolling on Instagram and found this ad with a really fun t-shirt i would love to get.

Now, im well aware of scammers on this type of sites, but they have a lot o tees with pictures and Everything. The only things that are making me question this site are:

  1. they dont say where they are from
  2. the time for shipping look a bit sketchy, like beetween 5-15 days of delivery, even tho im from Italy and dont really think that they could sent it this fast

this is the website: https://www.chicteebase.com

Do you have any advice? maybe i can Order it and get Back the Money somehow? thanks

Your Favorite ___ for $___: Handwear 2025

Guidelines for posting here:

I’ll post the price bins as top-level comments. Reply to the bin that fits your submission as a second-level comment. You can also use top-level comments for general info, inspiration albums, or general questions.

  • Stick to one brand or strategy per second-level comment. If you want to share details about both Hestra and Dents, post them separately so people can vote and discuss each option individually.
  • Include a link in your comment if possible—ideally to a purchase page, but at least to some images.
  • Use realistic pricing. This might be MSRP or sale prices, depending on the brand. For example, if you’re buying from a retailer known for frequent sales, it’s better to reference the discounted price.
  • The bins are in USD, so either use a US price or convert a non-US price to USD when deciding the bin.
  • For international users, please start by posting a second-level comment in the International bin with your region or country (e.g., "Europe," "Australia," etc.). Then, reply to your region comment with the appropriate price category from the list above. After that, reply to the price category comment with your specific submission.

This thread will stay open indefinitely and remain a resource for anyone looking to invest in quality handwear. Let’s make this as helpful and comprehensive as possible!

What should we do next week?

Looking for places to sell Prada, Saint Laurent, etc.

Hi all, I love fashion and have a tendency to click buy online, especially during the holiday season. That means I’ll usually have a stock-pile of things at home, worn only a few times, sitting in the closet. Now, I’m aware of the typical websites selling used clothes/shoes/jewelry, such as eBay, poshmark, fashionpile, real real - but I’m looking for something small, more curated. I just want a better seller experience - not looking for top dollar. All suggestions are appreciated!

Are ETQ low top sneakers worth buying?

I have not been able to find a lot of reviews or opinions on ETQ Amsterdam sneakers. Has anyone gotten sneakers from them? How are they in terms of quality, comfort, customer service? Is the brand overall a respectable one?

Clothing for bigger men

I want to find nice fashionable basics for my boyfriend. He's a really big guy, about 6'3 with a very big build (He usually wears 2XL or 3XL). But I find it hard to find clothes for him that arent just from walmart.

So if anyone knows trustworthy brands or online stores that sell clothes for bigger men. I'd appreciate it, I feel like it's been hard to find a good online store for this kind of thing.

Thank you!

Is there a way to

(Not a femboy) Of course, I want to have an excuse to wear latex not every day but on special occasions (concerts etc.). I want to combine latex and fabric like in the second photo without sacrificing my masculinity, but I have never got into any fashion stuff before. (I had to use google translate for this, i hope its understandable) (i'm talking about something similiar to dio brondo from jojo but in all black and without a crop top)

Do Brooks Brothers Dress Shirts Have Collar Sizes That Run Larger Like Charles Tyrwhitt?

Charles Tyrwhitt dress shirts tend to have slightly larger collars than the tagged size. A tagged 15.5-inch collar often measures closer to 16 inches in reality. which I like BTW.

Are Brooks Brothers the same situation or true to size ?

Canadian-made brand similar to Charles Tyrwhitt?

Given some impending moves in the US, I am taking more interest in Canadian-made products. I quite like Tyrwhitt, and I am fine sticking with them. But, am I missing out on some quality Canadian clothing that’s on par while likely being more expensive?

Could any suggest similar shoes to these?

Had a pair of Brook Park Timberland boots a while back and left them on the train. They were very comfortable and probably should have replaced them at the time but they were boots and they only had shoes in with it being summer. The shoes have always be comparable uncomfortable. I’m getting married soon and would like a similar shoe/boot to wear. The Alden Brook from Timberland are quite close.

W2C Signature Worthy Pants

I go for outfits that revolve around my pants. This makes it so that my pants need to be eye catching. Im looking for "signature worthy", unique pants that are interesting through design. I just can't find them as everywhere I look only contains blanks. Keep in mind that I wear baggy pants so Im not looking for embroidered jeans and such (Artful Dodgers and alike as example). Much Thanks.

Looking for a high-quality suit maker in the UK (London-based but willing to travel for the best)

I’m in the process of getting a suit made and want to better understand the differences between made-to-measure and bespoke from those who have experience with high-quality tailoring in the UK.

I have a very specific vision for my suit, including a high-rise trouser with a full break, double pleats, and a structured jacket with wide peak lapels in herringbone wool. While I’m based in London, I’m open to traveling for the best craftsmanship.

For those who have gone through the process, what are the key factors that make bespoke worth it over made-to-measure? How did you choose your tailor, and what was your experience like?

Would love to hear insights from those who have commissioned a suit at a high level.

Where can I find fashionable mod-style soft jackets that can survive rain?

I love this style of mod jacket: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxi59WsYhYWHIznKILqENQrElTHElxsj4XZ267ETsZ68jn5NoLlBiOWrKbVB_oUNmgbhx1DZNty_DPuIPEWNs8COyUenVENMjRJBjsaVu9dLKheLR_bGCcvxLsQUlYS_oS24CawsPUZsA/s640/junya_watanabe_fall_2011_2.jpg

But no matter where I go in the UK (London stores, Edinburgh stores, Frasers, TK Maxx), I can't seem to reliably find this look. Instead I find your basic outdoor coats, peacoats, jackets, denims, or more scottish patterns.

It's characterised for me(mids 20s male) by:

Suites a thinner profile, thin trousers, darker shoes, and scarfs. Usually three buttons, not too long.

Pattern/material: Checked and Cotton/soft, elbow/shoulder may differ

Colours: Dark browns, Dark Greys, Dark Green, Dark Navy Blue

Too often I find golf style jackets but these don't really suite the style, they jar with the other aspects where I push style a little (shoes etc).

Is there any way to find this style in the UK or any specialist shops?

What places sell low rise pants?

I just recently learned that pants have different rises (still making my entry into improving my wardrobe and exploring clothes haha) and I realized I've been wearing medium-high rise pants like I would low rise. I have a bit of a belly and it's just more comfortable to wear them on my hips, rather than up on my waist (plus it avoids the exaggerated clown-like look of big ballooned out waist to slim legs).

I usually stick with chinos and jeans, for business casual level look, and I was hoping to spend under $100 per pair (closer to $50 would be ideal), since I do plan on losing some more weight.

Outfits to pair with white turtleneck

Hey, so my birthday is in 2 weeks and I was planning on wearing a white turtleneck. I am currently thinking about pairing it with casual light blue jeans, but confused if I should wear something over the turtle neck. I am quite thin, (size 39) so the bare turtleneck looks odd. So does anyone have any recs? I saw a shirt with flap pockets, hex: #7e433b. So is it good? Please share any ideas you have. Thanks.

am i the only one who does not like suitsupply?

from what i have seen based on youtubers who advertise their products (or advcoate for them), their suits tend to be really bad.

Even the staff at suitsupply they tend to have sloppy suits.

Typically its too tight. you can see striations at around the waist button. the lapel jumps out of the chest beause the suit is tight. collar gap. their shoulders are super weird. also their jacket sleeves are too short and tight.

Everytime I see their employees on a youtube video or youtubers vouching for them, their suits are absolutley horrible. Am i going crazy?

Resources for learning about retail clothing - terminology of designs/fabrics/fibers/patterns etc.

Hi there. I currently work for J. Crew and Travis Matthew. Started into this world of retail about a month ago. I am really interested in gaining more insight about terminology of our products, history of fibers and fabrics, the process of constructing the fabric/clothing, why things are the way they are. I’m sorry if some of that doesn’t make sense, but to sum it up I’d just like to gain more product knowledge for myself and for my customers. Online free resources with pictures would be preferred but i’m open to all suggestions. Thanks!

Moving away from sweatpants.. what’s next?

Hi all, Im trying to finally move away from sweatpants wearing. Im 18 and Ive basically only worn sweatpants my whole life. I’ve never cared much about my fashion, but recently shifted from wearing lots of hoodies and flannels (when it was warm enough to just wear a flannel and t shirt) to wearing those generic columbia brand fleece zip up “jackets” and the more I wear them the more I feel sort of weird wearing sweatpants with them.

All my sweatpants are the black tracksuit adidas style looking ones, not the grey cotton type or the ones with the fitted ankles, and it looks okay but just unprofessional. The problem is that I hate jeans, I don’t like how they look generally and I don’t like how they feel. Any other options?

Just in general I’m looking for a more professional style (but not straight business and still comfortable) that doesn’t look awkward on me. I’m 6’3 and 155 lbs so i’m relatively lanky, plus I have longer har (about shoulder length, vaguely like kurt russell’s in the thing, without the facialhair) so I’m just trying to find out what suits me.
