From the cockamamie ideas dept:

In researching ghillie brogues, I have read so many complaints about how uncomfortable they are.

If one likes the aesthetic of long tasseled laces (which I do), and wants to wear comfortable leather shoes (which I also do), how gauche would it be to put a pair of ghillie brogue replacement laces on a pair of comfortable (non-ghillie, tongued) brogues? I could envision thousands of Highland Scots turning over in their graves, but I could also envision thousands of pairs of happy feet (or at least one!).

Rabble Rousers - weigh in!
