    They appear to be cemented with a fake welt.

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/285847604019?siteid=0&toolid=10001 These are VCleat's watchlist and I was thinking of pulling the trigger except for the fact that these are not actually goodyear welted. Additionally, the soles appear to be synthetic. Pass!

    This is a time where living on the west coast works against me. Damn, my size too!

    These Weyenberg Massagics are one of my favorite pairs. Unfortunately, the french binding is falling apart and the heels have a tear in the leather. If I could somehow get a NOS version I would be thrilled.

    Paging @friendlygoz . Feels like you could do a great job restoring this pair.

    Florsheim 93605s from 1987. These are 11Cs but they fit a little wider than my 92604s which are also 11Cs. 🤔

    New to me: vintage Church's Ranch Oxhide wingtip bluchers. Interestingly, these have six nails, one more than our five nail Florsheim favorites.

    How are the heels on those 11.5Cs? The used versions of Stratfords I've seen have almost all had crumbling heels.

    The shark skin matches the rug. Nice!

    Also a grail pair for me, although the 31890 is close enough and much less expensive/rare.

    Interesting pair of Florsheims popped up on Ebay. Wonder how the quality is: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176221007060?hash=item2907972cd4:g:EbMAAOSwyr9lvb~A

    I suspect that having a very narrow foot also gives him an advantage over us normal and wide-footed folks.
