Hey gents - What are your thoughts on these 2 boots? I am really in love with the Veo Boot look. Only con is that they are super heavy and not as comfortable. What I like about the Fortune Boot is that it's more comfortable and lighter. Design wise I'd pick Veo Vs. Fortune... Question is look over comfort? Ughhh I hate being a Libra sometimes. Help?

FORTUNE ANKLE BOOT:

I personally prefer the Fortune boot - with the cleaner lines, it's a sleeker profile, and with the added bonus that it is more comfortable and lighter. The lustre on the entire Fortune boot is stunning to me.

In the long run, comfortable shoes will always win out in my opinion, and given we live our lives with the majority of our time spent on our feet, I don't think it would be sensible to get the Veo.

Hi fellow Air sign (I'm an Aquarius :flowers:)! Hermès shoes aren't generally known for being very comfortable, but I'm thinking the Veos may be more comfortable than the Fortunes because of the slightly platformed sole. Plus I'm a huge fan of any shoes with a bit of a platform. On the other hand, I really like the orange soles on the Fortunes. I would still opt for the Veos, though. Excited to hear what you pick, both are stunning!
 
Hey gents
Finally made it to the new Madison store here in NYC and stumbled upon this canvas and leather tote id never seen before
didn’t have time to wait for an SA to inquire but of course now the wheels are turning in my mind…does anyone know what it’s called?
Tia!

It’s an Etrivière Pocket bag (Canvas-body, V. hunter-handles, and Swift-pocket).

I’m so glad you picked the fortune :smile: I like the design and the fact they are comfy.

I don’t think I posted this here. DH with his sample sale h hooded techno jacket, leather pockets; leather boots with sneaker sole. if only H did these styles in smaller/women’s sizes, I would have snapped them up. He is wearing the boots with his dior sports coat; brunello gray denim jeans; Duret Buffalo Dalmatian belt
IMO the boots look a bit Jil Sander.

These are great finds! congrats! I got the invite for the sale. Was scared the lines would have been insane so I passed. I did buy a few items other than the boots. I'll have to do a reveal here. Maybe tomorrow!

oh, no! Next time do go to the sale. No lines, bc invite only. And, there was a lot of men’s stuff, and even an H SA in the mens aisle to help.

Yesterday's shopping outfit. A sneak on another item I picked up with the boots. Vert De Gris and Bleu Indigo Belt with Black Matte H buckle.

Guys I can't tell you how happy I ended up with the B35 vs. B40. The more I use it, the more I see it suiting my frame . I think I would have been disappointed not being able to use the 40 daily. @Prada Prince go ahead, you can say I told you so :lol:
