Hi everyone, my high school formal is coming soon and I like many from my generation tend to leave things to the last minute. I was planning to buy some formal shoes after my hsc but if I buy it online it won't make it in time (formal is about a month away from now).

After missing out on the julius marlow deal and the myers 50% discount (not for the general public), I seem not to be able to find a nice pair for a good deal. I have about $100-$150 bucks to spend and would prefer black. Any suggestions on a durable, long lasting pair from experience would be nice (I know $150 is not a lot to work with).

I'm located in sydney so any info would be awesome.

Thanks.

Follow Up: I decided to buy the Florsheim Acclaim from The Iconic for $90 (including shipping and 20% discount), was in my budget range and the leather is good plus overnight shipping. Thanks for the help everyone!

    Outlets shopping centres are usually full of shoe stores with good deals - maybe try your nearest one?

      Yup, I might do a run around my area after my exams. I'll have about 2 weeks to do so. Cheers YTW.

    Dude, get antoine and Stanley. Takes only a couple of days to deliver and they make great pairs of shoes. Hand made in oz itself. Sign up for newsletter to get discount. Here's one to start with…

      Thanks! Yeah the iconic has them for sale at really cheap prices, however, most of the size 11's a gone :(

      edit: Prices are pretty much the same (only cheap one is with the blue top), might go for the iconic ones if they have anything more than the 10% coupon. Otherwise I'll go with the official website itself.

      edit2: found coupon http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/119038 it works but no sizes left. I would have popped at 120 lol

    Julius Marlow has 50% off their spring collection.
    Rock, Roll or Milan would make really good formal shoes!
    Check this page out.

    Don't forget to create a julius marlow account. You will then get an extra $10 off your first pair.

      Thanks Goku, I'm the type of person that if I see it was cheaper before (such as the previous Julius Marlow sale) I wouldn't buy it unless it drops to that price or lower. That's why I'm never going to get anything done LOL

      But thanks for the info, I appreciate it :)
