Brooks could kill.

Love them or Loathe them, you must take a look at some of the totally badass shoes currently available at prep mecca, Brooks Brothers. Mr. Hare is not one to shop on any high Street for his footwear but even I am tempted.
Tassle loafers in Cordovan leather.
Cordovan is leather from the hind quarters of a horse. Hard-wearing, scuff resistant, buffs well and is reassuringly expensive.
Classic Riding Boot
Speaking of horses, the nearest Mr. Hare has come to one lately is from the Queens stand on Ladies day at Epsom, but these are hot to trot.
Mr. Hare is no stranger to the fairway but these are 10 under!


Alligator Wing Tips. Surely the box on the top shelf of any respectable shoeists closet.
Did ever a finer Oxford wingtip toe-tap to the beat of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers.

In case anyone is wondering, what do you buy the shoe blogger who has everything, for christmas?
