By the way, where do you guys stand on the whole square toe question?

They are all the rage in office wear but they don't look right to me.

I guess I'm just old skool.

Yeah, what's up?

"Well, I was wondering if you could find something out for me. When I lived in St. Joe, there used to be this store that sold shoes and ties and hats, and BOY they were sharp. I've been meaning to buy some new shoes for a while, but I don't know if these stores are still around, so I don't know if you could find that out."

Shoe shopping? Okay, I guess so. Do you remember the name of the store?

"I do as a matter of fact. It was right across from where I worked, I used to go there all the time, it was called 'Stacy Adams.'"

I almost fell out of my chair laughing.

I'm not sure if any of you have been to a stacy adams, but I guess that as times and market forces have shifted, they're now targetting the black audience pretty exclusively; from their website:

My granddad is pretty cool despite growing up in the south, because St. Joe MO was a big stop on the blues/swing circuit and he was a bartender at several nightclubs, so I just laughed and said 'ok, I found one' and gave him the address. He has since shown me his shoes. They are pretty pimp.

Nice ones Garbanzo, but I don't know, I find it hard to stray from the wingtips.

Square toes don't work for me either.
