Rocking shoes Slewfoot, just a great buy IMO. They are so minimal they'll go with anything black shoes go with IMO. Buckle's different (oops just saw post above) - looks good, the old ones had a tendency to break anyway - inferior alloy, not pure brass. I've changed to square too and I like the way the square and round play off each other. BTW suits around the house? wow, very HRH

+1 JR is default Philo- never seen anything else. and it's generally regarded as the best because of the length of time in the pits - 12 months IIRC.
