The iconic sell some reasonable ones and you can wait until a storewide sale.


I really like my leather bag. I bought one from this brand a few years ago and it's easily the most complimented piece lf clothing or accessory I own. I literally never use it without someone saying "damn that's nice ", even airport security guys. Looks even nicer as it ages and scuffs too.

The one thing I don't particularly like about CDBs is they feel too wide for my feet. When I was in the US earlier this year I had the fortune of trying out a Redwing Heritage Chukka (https://amzn.com/B002LNPSLU) and I found it much more comfortable and better looking. It is a bit pricier, but the quality is amazing and its currently my favourite casual boot.

Amazon has a good selection and if getting them as part of an order then shipping only increases like $2.

Im not sure which ones to get though eg What is the difference between these?

Will use them for an Oxford or Gibson.

i got one of these recently and i really like it, though i think i would have gotten one of these instead if they had stock when i ordered. they have a black leather on the outside and some sort of super thin nylon material on the inside. when its full its like a third of the size of my old wallet empty

That link just took me to a general search page that didn't allow shipping to Australia, here is the link to Clubmasters that ship via Amazon and not a third party seller. Also, Amazon only ships the 49mm version of this model, the 51mm pair ships from a third party seller and cannot be delivered to Australia.

Does anyone know if there is a way to disable third party items being displayed on amazon.com? I've never had much luck having items from these sellers delivered to Australia.

Yeah I think I might go with Sperry's socks. http://www.amazon.com/SPERRY-Signature-Solid-Liner-Taupe/dp/B00AEO1KC4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371232345&sr=8-1&keywords=sperry+liner

Supposed to be very nice being Sperry and I'll need get some for the boat shoes anyways.

Beeswax Leather? these ones: (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004DCV1JU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER) or the originals? Might be interested, send me a PM if they're the right ones on where in Sydney you are

> Should I risk buying them online?

Go try them on. Seriously, find your nearest OPSM (at mine they're not behind glass so you can try them on without an attendant) or Sunglass Hut and see which width fits you best.

Once you've done that, then yes of course, as long as it's a reputable online retailer.

Also, Amazon has frequent price drops on Ray Bans (New Wayfarer for $82 plus $10 shipping) and you know they're going to be authentic if you see "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com" (the other sellers are very likely authentic but it's not guaranteed).

Hard to see from this picture, but I'm 99% sure they're these: http://www.amazon.com/Red-Wing-Heritage-Beckman-Moc/dp/B0032UYPCE

I got mine for $77 + $18 shipping last year off Amazon. I had some other stuff on my wishlist that I had added to the order so I wasn't too sore about the shipping. Just keep an eye out on the price, it's up now but it spends more time than not around the $80 mark. http://camelcamelcamel.com/Clarks-Originals-Mens-Desert-Beeswax/product/B000WU6TMG

For whatever it's worth:

(Amazon link to CBDs for $45 that does ship to aus but with few sizes available). shoutouts to frugal mens fashion subreddit

Here's the link to the weekender bag. Searching the brand, "David King and Co" brought up heaps of different options/sizes. Should also double check whether they ship to Australia.

Thorogood make a solid pair of boots, you can get them on amazon and the shipping's not too bad last time I checked. Red Wings would be better but it's difficult to get them to Australia for under 200.

Yeah i had a look at windsor smith and really wasnt impressed. I've been wearing these but they seem to be discontinued and the larger sizes are hard to come by.
