I just bought a pair of C&J Somervilles and some driving shoes otherwise I'd be all over a pair of those EGs. I don't think I've ever seen those sizes discounted before, except used. Wow!

The Westbourne was on sale at Barney's last weekend. It's possible your size may still be in stock if you can call or go to their NYC flagship store. The price was pretty unbeatable at $289 I believe. Normally around $575 I think. I...
