To each his own, but I wouldn't wear those if Moses told me to.

Looks like I can finally be the pimp i've always wanted to be.

They literally look like CLOWN 🤡 SHOES! 😂

Yep these are the perfect shoes for the guy who lives off his inheritance and runs a gossip blog and doesn’t work a real job. The rest of us need something with less “lacy” leather.

For $400, you'd think they'd make them with a square toe and a non-slip sole...for the pipe-fitters and operators.

Don't be discouraged KF. Most of this crowd has never had two pairs of shoes in their lives anyway.

You would have to kill and castrate me before I'd even think about those monstrosities. What's next, ballet pumps?

Have owned a dozen pair of AE shoes over the last 35 years….

These are absolute hideous.

The joker wouldn’t even laugh in these things.

Hey! I take offense to the Jazz Musician comment! I’m one!

I have a couple of pairs of Johnson and Murphy that have the linen inserts. After a short length of time they tear due to the bending of your toes. I’m not sure if the Allen Edmonds have that problem or not

Can’t we just enjoy the news! It’s only for informational purposes. Don’t get too bent out of shape.

That is a cool pair of shoes, but I'm afraid they may clash with my
seersucker suit.

Beat me, Daddy, eight to the bar and 86 skidoo.

OH those that grew up at the wrong time.
These are perfect example of former style, class and distinction. Pair this style in a black and white while wearing a blue and white seersucker suit, damn. I do expect blow back from the uninformed. This type of shoe and style has nothing to do with ethnic clothing we all wore these back then, not that long ago.
Famous color combo's
Black & White
Brown & Tan
Black & Gray
Brown & Blue
Tan & Linen
Brown & Linen
Black & Blue

The cut for the laces usually came in a blucher or bal. Sorry you need to know the difference.

Another lady here who thinks these are handsome shoes.

So what inheritance do you think KF has? Lol. You are clueless.

In my formative years these skids were commonly know to us as “bee bops”. Originally black and white they later came in brown and cream. Palominos we called them. You were quite fashonable wearing tight jeans and a pair of palominos.

Never will get the love affair people have with foot wear outside of comfort. I'm sure has something to do with insecurity.

I think Rodney Dangerfield cut a fine figure in these golf shoes.

KF, you’re just a notch or two in the style department above most all of your Readers. Keep it up though, you’ll pull us up a notch or two.

I identify as a lady and I think these shoes are fabulous

They will look good with my paisley shirts.

Kingfish said...

Wouldn't wear these as I wear boots. However, you guys ask me to post deals when I come across them so I do. As for the shoes being wimpy, last two Clinton press conferences I've been to, the Mayor wore a pair of Spectators. Of course, a former Marine and Airborne Ranger is probably not manly enough for some internet tough guys.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
