Aldo - yes ... comfort i would rate 80/100
Pedro - no ... for the sum of money u can get aldo with top up ... comfort i would rate 65/100. shoes leather ... cheapo
Y i said that because usually buy black and brown shoes at 1 time ... but their leather peel off when touch water (ie rain or water u walk the water drips will skip up to your shoe tip) it is discolored and leather peel off ...

With due respect, but usually i buy 2 pairs (black and brown colors at the same time) ...
Also I would have total 6 pair of working shoes at any point of time. I rotate my shoes twice every week.
Other then decoloration for brown / cream color shoes and i am very sure the leather sucks .... personnal view for pedro shoes i own. After a few weeks the toe area peels off after touch water / light drizzle.
I will not walk into any pedro shop these days.... the money can buy everbest. or top up for better shoes ...

i've only got 2 pairs of dress shoes - both goodyear welted. i believe in buying something that will last a long time... and i don't like changing shoes.
i've owned a pair of alden shell cordovan PTBs for almost 8 years. and my wife bought me a pair of loakes corrected grain leather oxfords (50% discount from robinsons) and i've worn them for more than a year.
my cordovan shoes have been resoled once and taps replaced twice. this is a pair that will last me until i die...! they can also be recrafted in future.
my leather shoes are in okay condition, no work needed yet and holding up quite well (considering the price of $195 and no taps/protectors installed)
i notice that singaporeans like to throw away shoes after a few years and buy new ones... is this a common practice? it seems quite expensive and wasteful...
does anyone know where i can go to have taps installed on my shoes in singapore?
