On the Street….Grand Palais, Paris
IÂ thought this was such a great play on the mixing of textures, scale, color and proportion. Â If the knit was much longer it would have given her a more square, boxy look. Â Getting the inward curve of the high hip gives the eye a smaller line to look at around the waist. Basically, a well proportioned knit can can drop inches off your waistline. Â Â ![]()

My Nike AF1
As much as I love my Aldens, my Church’s and my Tod’s, I have to admit, I love these Nike AF1 just as much.
Like a great cordovan wing tip, these Nikes only get better looking with age. I feel sad it’s almost time to pack them away until next October.
I’m not a sneaker guy so these may be AF1 but also they could be Nike Air Royals Premium Mids. I’ve heard that I could potentially have these remade (maybe same leather as AF1?) at the Nike shop down on Mercer Street, can anyone confirm that?
