excellent.

actually, these won't make it on this years wishlist.

nevertheless, i'll put it on file for the next pick up.

Me alway look for tan pebble grain Paprika in me size.

i haven't forgotten about your wish...

just received the following "review" of the soul of the cause:

I think "paprikas" are like food recipes...there are many variations of the classics in everyones family, while some additions might improve the recipe, it important to keep a record of the original, otherwise there is a lot of heritage to be lost. You can always make changes to the original, but if the modified version becomes the standard (like the square toe was with shoes in the 00s), you can forget the origin and reasons behind the true original.

that sums it up.

happy holidays and a happy new year.

Fritzl,

The most incredible package arrived in the post today. A brand new and very beautiful pair of shoes handmade in Vienna. This was very much a surprise. We must talk soon.

But in a few minutes I'm on my way to dinner at La Toque in Napa. And now ... well ... I must go remove the three part trees from the shoes I'll be wearing this evening. Will bring along a camera ... and make a photo or two.

Below is a photo of the Paprika's as worn last evening. Sorry the color isn't better.

they look great and it seems the fit is impeccable.

Gerd, indeed the fit is excellent. I am thrilled to have these shoes given their great beauty and their history.

Some of us who have spent most of our lives in places urban can also have a certain appreciation for things country ... provincial ... rural. I think this is especially true as we age.

having see your, i think you got one of the nicer ones, not fair :-(

Why thank you. Given my love of tweeds ... these shoes fit very well into my wardrobe.

lulz, i love them all

i'm sure, i offered them to you. they're around your size, too.

iirc, there was something about the colour or the dislike of ptb's which only changed recently.

there are still a lot of beauties to chose from...

Some get the nicer ones, some don't get offered anything, go figure.

yea this is true, thro still not fair! wanna spit my dummy out now hahaha

nole i was not offer these papi's


i guess it is like a pick in mix sometimes
