men’s corner: the boat shoe…revamped…

back in april 2010…i wrote about this lovely shoe that i am not to keen on…haven’t really figured out why…they just don’t appeal to me…and at that time…after a lengthy time of finally persuading my friend of the other alternatives for footwear…he comes across an article in  gq magazine…all about the lovely boat shoe…making a comeback…here is the post…for reference…

and no…i am not writing a new post to tell you of my new found love for these shoes…although i do have to say…i am loving the creativity in the latest styles…but really…it is the color…and the prints i’m loving…not the shoe…

i keep thinking one day…something will make me change my mind…but alas…it has not happened…is this a winning shoe for you?  if you are a top-sider wearer…do you stick to the solid neutrals?  would you venture out to a bright color…perhaps bright orange?  or would you be really adventurous…and choose something like the above pics?
