A dark sleek round whole cut with 5 (golden?) metal eyelets and flat laces, great idea!. what about this one you posted in the Japanese thread?

This is the first double strap shoe I've seen that avoids the ugly (imo) fat crossing flap.

X-post from shoe Appreciation. Old shoe (well, shown here before in any event) but new pics that I think capture the colours a little better.
Beautiful shoe and colours, I would prefer it without the goyser, but nitpicking.

I don't think I'd ever get sick of the color I ordered: whiskey shell. I think anyone who sees this shoe should agree and wouldn't want to sell :devil:

What would be the quintessential NST color? I may order one that actually fits this time and was thinking to do something different than the whiskey? Any thoughts?


Rather than the colour, I would worry about the last and leather, I ordered mine in the Peter last and cognac scotchgrain. I hated it, It was boring and creased ugly. I would go for a sleeker last in a darker color to put some edge on them, single sole.

Just curious to know, which Saphir creme/wax do owners of Vass Oxblood shoes use? If not Saphir, which brand/colour? Thanks in advance.

My OEII Oxblood are still in production, and should be on their way soon

Roberto Ugolini fatto a mano da VASS



discontinued with much sadness

Still available on an MTO I guess...I'd seen this model before, and if you look carefully at the suede section it reminded me of a woman corset (with mega wide hips)....
