  • I like dressing nicely. In fact, I know more about fashion than the gf, even though she dress very well too. To my knowledge they biggest sale they have is like 10% or 15% off full priced items each year. I know, eh? I think twice a year they'll have 40% off sale, but the stuff I like is never on sale ... ANYWAY Only going to talk about the men's shoes: This store carries a great deal of both low-end and higher end shoes (mid-tier=churchs if you frequent SF). The thing about shoes in general is that most of the time, their price to quality ratio is pretty much on par. The more expensive the shoe is, the better quality it is (again, this is generally only for dress shoes). That is true when it comes to high-end men's fashion, like Gaziano & Girling ($1500+), Crockett & Jones ($650+), Alden($500+), Carmina ($500+), and Allen Edmonds ($300 - 500). The aforementioned brands demonstrate QUALITY with an increasing price point. However, this store carries some "fashionable" shoe brands like Mr. Hare, which is blake-welted shoe with corrected grain (I think) and priced at $900? That is ridiculous, considering I can buy a pair of Alden cordovans or Alfred Sargents for less money, which are both Goodyear Welted and far better quality! For example, they sell the brand "Fluevog", which seems to be cemented (sole is glued on / adhesive construction) for $300. That is preposterous! I can purchase a pair of Goodyear welted Allen Edmonds (full grain leather) for $300 when it's on sale (~4x a year in Toronto). The AE are better looking and the quality is exponentially better. Secondly, some of the shoes here are out of date, namely some of the Church's styles. Note that Church's quality has fallen with being acquired by Prada. *Edit: They keep both old and new stock. Gravity Pope seem to not offer any discounts on their old stock if it's "brand name", like Arcteryx Veilance and Church's, even though if it's from the seasons before. They need to realize that other stores in Toronto are offering large markdowns on their old stock at the end of the season to bring in the new stock...like Harry Rosen. Gravity Pope needs to hire better pricing strategists because I personally feel much of the stuff will be hard to sell with the exuberant prices now.
