“Lace Ups”
I was flipping through a copy of Details, and their showcase of some of the fall fashions. At left, is one of the looks they showed. Nothing new or revolutionary about it. Seems to me to be basic clothes that men could live with. A long sleeved shirt. Pants that could be weathered blue khakis or jeans.
One detail caught my interest, however.
The footwear the model is wearing is what they are referring to as”Lace Ups.”
I think they are protesting a little too much by pointing out specifically that they are different because they are polished, and they are certainly not broken in and scuffed up. As if they knew exactly what I was thinking.
Lean your head in a bit and take a closer look. ”Lace ups” are just another euphemism for BOOTS
Take a little closer look. Specifically, to me, they look like a slight throwback to a certain Doctor rather than any sort of equestrian look. In fact, on another page, a pair that had the white stitch close to the sole were featured with an outfit. Looks like combat boots redux a la 90s to me.
