I'm not overly keen on the toe now that I've seen the second photo. Nice boot all the same, though.

Not sure about the welt but you're right about the other two.

That's a very good description!

I'm on the fence about it at the moment. I shall have to ponder it a while longer!

I have just asked the owner of those shoes - he says this pair form Januszkiewicz is more comfortable and a shape of last is perfect.

I like the brogueing and heel counter on the tan pebble grain pair, but find the overal proportion, waist and heel of the burgundy pair to be more appealing.
