I love that pair. What last is it on? It appears to be one of their sleeker lasts.

Thanks guys! Glad you all approve. They are pretty great if I do say so myself. I'm already looking forward to Monday when I'll be wearing them out and about!

That it is! It will be pulling in a lot more this winter! Your prior Berkeley model was the inspiration for these actually. Glad you like them.

Thanks Spoo!

EDIT - I should also mention that I think these shoes will be extremely versatile. I can see wearing them with everything from jeans to a gray flannel suit.

I agree and thanks - let the ripples commence! Now you can see why I also wanted the chukka in a similar style!

I am going to raise Slewy with some patinated saddle shell number. This pair came straight after some creaming and brushing.
