    What are you wearing today??

    Thanks mate! l really love these shoes. Beautiful last, close cut bevelled waist and beautiful French calfskin used for the uppers. Something really amazing is the fine stitching of the uppers. They are stitched 16 stitches per inch; some of the finest stitching on Ready-To-Wear you will...

    Genuine shell cordovan shoes

    l have one pair of AE Stocksbridge wingtips. lt's not really a dressy leather so i'm not overly excited about them, but they are a tough old leather that should age really well. The thing l like is that they are low maintainance (don't need to polish them much). A real drawback for me is that...

    Anyone know. Also: when did Florshiem stop doing the hand writing on the insides of the shoos?

    Would you ladies wear these shoos?

    lol . When you wear heals, don't your little toes get all crushed in the ends of the shoos, especially with pointed toes? lol lol l appreciate all your comments. lt has been interesting to get your views and you have all made me laugh alot.

    Would you ladies wear these shoos?

    That's why l love mens shoos so much; a good pair will last a long time. You gals are always getting ripped off when it comes to quality. l notice alot of people here hate `patina'. l'm not too fussed about it myself: often comes off anyway. Patina significantly adds to the cost.....takes...

    Would you ladies wear these shoos?

    Yes, l think that shoo would go really nice with an appropiate dress or a pair of trousers, it looks really smart and classic. My grandmother used to wear high fronted shoos too.

    What are you wearing today??

    Your shirts are looking alot better these days Alan. They don't look as frumpy and washed out anymore. Your shirts were always your weak point (previously); always spoilt your outfits. Now they look good. Well done. l'm curious: do you ever get your jackets tailored? They always look great...

    l'm very very fond of longwings. Black captoe oxfords and tan longwing bluchers are my favourite shoo-styles by far.

    What years would the Florshiem be? What year did Florshiem stop making all-leather heals? 62/63?? l'll probably contact Florshiem. l'd really love to know the date of Alan's too.

    l'll just say one thing Alan....your Nettleton gunboats are the best l have ever seen. l truely mean that too. Sure the European bespoke models are brilliant, but the American styles are quaint and most beautiful to my eyes. No-one does longwings like the Americans, l am very very greatful. ...

    You know, l first hot excited about 50's and 60's shoes when l was a kid. Always wanted to see an unworn pair from that era but never had the chance to see it. That wanting always stuck with me until this very day. l would always watch the old films just to see the shoos. Later on..when video's...

    Florshiem lmperial sizing

    Believe me....i've been checking ebay for a long time for the right size. They never have unworn classics in my size, they are always too narrow or the wrong size. l haven't seen a size 8D or 8E ever. When a bloke told me about them, l just had to hold my breath and get them. l've been...
