1901

As familiar as I am with Nordstom's in house 1901 brand (I'm not gonna front like that place wasn't my fashion Mecca for a while back in the day) I am kinda surprised I haven't posted on it sooner.  While the 1901 garments leave a whole lot to be desired in terms of fit and style, the shoes are pretty on point.  It's nothing crazy, just a few classic styles for under $100.  As far as S/S goes they have a few of the cornerstones to a footwear game done right - a buck, saddle and driver.  For the guy on a fairly strict budget the 1901 stuff is actually a pretty good deal.  It also seems fitting I talk about this now because apparently these guys drew the biggest crown at Coachella or so I hear.

  1. Unfortunately they are pretty uncomfortable. Tons of padding on the insole makes these a no-go in my opinion. Great looking shoes on a budget though.

  2. Yeah I actually came across these bucks in store awhile back and wondered about the quality. I was going to look into it, but then I forgot to.

  3. Saw these at the mall a few weeks ago, not bad but I really wish they'd put the gray buck on the red sole. White sole looks weird.

  4. I was waiting for a post on these after seeing them "on the shelf." I do have to say the baby blues were a fav. Did you see em? Seemed like a nice combo with seer sucker...
