OK so it seems like the good weather is bringing out a fine selection of bad footwear. Perhaps whilst groping around in the backs of their wardrobe for their summer trousers, people are finding long forgotten pairs of shoes and thinking 'why haven't I been wearing these recently?'
Here are some possible reasons:
1. You sobered up.
2. You lost your job as an extra in Babylon 5.
3. They were in the back of the wardrobe when you moved in.
4. Your mother got them for you (from her job as an extra in Babylon 5).
5. It was winter and you thought one-tone ugly pointy shoes would be more appropriate.

I want it to be understood that I am in no way anti two-tone footwear, indeed I own two pairs of two-tone brogues myself. However, these are the detail jeans of two-tone footwear, i.e. naff and much cheaper looking than they actually were. I image the poor fool that bought these paid a reasonable amount of cash, thinking being on-trend was worth the money. I'd be willing to bet he'd have got a decent pair of Loakes* for about half the price. I guess then though his shoes wouldn't have been so on-trend**, they'd have been timeless and stylish.

*Other brands of classic leather shoe are available.
**The trend in question here apparently being the clown-assassin look.
