These are the 5-10s the wife got me wit personalised wording. She’s always doing stuff like that
My new Five Tens fit like a dream, which isn't a shock as i've had 7-8 pairs in the last 4-5 years... Sometimes, it's just better to stay with what you know :)
I’m still not liking the Mondeo.

Yes, these are far and away the most comfortable shoes -MTB or otherwise

I've seen people walking around with made to measure shirts with their initials on the sleeve.
I always think it's like in the 80's when people used to put their initials on the back of their car in gold scroll letters.

If my missus got my shoes embroidered she'd probably have You and Twat on them, seriously.
Are embroidered shirt initials still a thing? The Americans used to love them - normally on one cuff. Sometimes on the breast of the shirt. It always struck me as important if you occasionally forgot who you were ...
Paired with a Mont Blanc pen and a Blackberry
And one of those American suits with slightly too short and highly voluminous trouser legs.

Monogrammed accessories were good enough for Jay Gatsby. He would have had a personalised numberplate now I'd guess.
