I wonder if we could work with Rancourt to create a SF special makeup....hmmm
Navy shell captoe with full leather midsole, natural edge trim and a leather sole?
serious?? how about looking one post up from yours...
I just posted pics like two weeks ago of a navy CXL makeup but I hear youI love this forum, but we should rename it the Shell Cordovan forum.
I do think those Navy Shell Beefrolls are amazing.
I got the same pair, but i find the sole to be uncomfortable, maybe because i have flat feet. I am getting it re-soled with Lactae Havea; hopefully it will make a difference...Hi everybody,
FedEx just brought me my new summer shoes. Navy-coloured Boat Chukkas that Rancourt made for Brooks Brothers:
I've been lurking on this forum and on the Rancourt website for a while now. This is my first pair of handsewn shoes. I was nervous about the sizing as there would have been no sensible way of returning them all the way from Germany to the US. These were on sale 50% off and the only pair left was exactly my usual size – 13D. So I took the risk and just ordered them.
I loved them from the moment I opened the box. The leather is thick and supple and feels just beautiful (there was no exact description, but I guess this is navy Chromexcel), and both sides fit like the proverbial pair of gloves, which is surprising because I have large feet with narrow heel and a significant length difference between left and right. So now I know what size to order – I have a feeling this will not be may last pair;-)
Thanks for letting me share,
Bernhard
That makes sense. I knew a big football player dude in college that used to have to buy his shoes from a special store because he said that regular shoes are designed for people that weight 150lbs, and they didn't give him enough support.It probably depends on the wearer's weight. To me, at over 100 kilos, it feels almost like having no sole at all, or like the sock-like house slippers we call "Hüttenschuhe": very comfortable on smooth surfaces and carpet, but a bit too thin for walking longer distances on asphalt. But then I have enough shoes for that kind of use.
I received that same info from Katie at Rancourt. I had the same question.oh really? so caramel = natural thats what you mean?
