That's a bear cub. I've shed a bear cub

My Dad asked me to find him some dark brown dress shoes (size 14) for under $200. He will wear them at least once a week so I want to find a durable and comfortable pair for him.. Which shoes/companies would you suggest I check out? (They also need to be available here in Canada)

I did a search to see if this article had been discussed. Didn't see anything but then, how do you get the search to show the newest results first? That said, have the younger crowd ditched sneakers and rediscovered loafers as stylish? "The Loafer’s Big Generational Shift" https://www.esquire.com/style/mens-fashion/a70333866/loafer-generational-shift-trend-2026/ "“About 18 months ago we noticed the big fashion brands started to delete sneakers from their runway shows.” he (British shoemaker Tim Little) told me (the author of the article Nick Sullivan) over a steak au poivre at our seasonal and very unfashionable haunt in Bastille one night. “At the same time, we started hearing from our retailers that our youngest customers were bypassing sneakers in growing numbers and asking what they could get for their budget that—specifically—wasn’t sneakers.” Trends have their lifespan, of course. For Little this was something else. “I think it’s also partly fatigue” he told me. “As if that younger generation has grown tired of the endless drop culture in sneakers and maybe even a sense of nostalgia for a time—at least in their minds—when style wasn’t constantly being shilled at them. Buying shoes that will last past six months is an appealing way to escape that endless fast-fashion cycle.” --- I haven't bought a pair yet, but they are on my radar in the thrift store runs.

Hi everyone. Had eye surgery last Wednesday so I’ve been taking it easy the last couple days to recuperate. Need to take it easy for the next week or two. Hope all of you are having a good weekend.it is 41 in Philly today. A heatwave

A little more muscle, and I can wear the garters. Not the driving reason, but still exciting
