Hmmm... I may have to do a bit of research into their various lasts. I'd all but given up hope of ever wearing anything sleeker than an AE Park/Fifth Avenue.

@JohnsNotHere What models are that? Clifford, Belgrave?

Yes & yes. Belgraves are 1 year old BTW and have been worn heavily... not in bad shape I think

Both look great! Wear just make them look better...
Really like the Clifford, thinking of getting a pair for my self. Don´t own a brouge shoe and have a hard time to decide which shoe/model to buy.

Cliffords are handmades and beautiful shoes. I have a pair in English Tan.

Can anyone comment on how 240 last fits (in comparison to 348/358/337). BB has the shell boots made by C&J in 240, but C&J themselves only have boots in 348 (Northcote which I have) and 341 (Shell Cordovan) which I don't have. I can't seem to find anything in C&J store in 240 last, and didn't see the BB in London carry the shell boots either.

P.s. these are the ones I am talking about

Fits TTS, smaller than the 348 as it isn't too elongated.

Can anyone comment on sizing for the 358 vs 341?

I am in love with these but 998 for shell captoe? I'm waiting for an xmas sale, i hear they drop to 600

I ordered those and return them becasue of the color. BB says those are brown but to me they look like that number # 8 shell cordovan.

so burgundy? Even better! This will be my first pair of shell, and no I am not paying 998 either...

good to know, thanks, I assume quite roomy on the toebox right? What's most comparable last in your opinion?

I agree burgundy is cool, Clee care to share you secret of how to avoid that $998 price or are you just waiting on a sale?

I'm bumping this partly as an excuse to show a pair of fantastic-looking well-worn Weymouths..but also to ask what size are these?

My first post on SF

I hope that all the sand and rubble soon will be swept away from the streets of Stockholm, these shoes are waiting for some action this spring. From left to right: Clifford, Clifford, Rosemoore and Belgrave.



I also took a picture that shows C&Js unlasted shoe tree (light colour) in comparison to C&Js lasted shoe tree (darker colour). I have to say that the lasted shoe tree (made for the 337 last) fits the shoe perfectly. If it's worth £80, well, strictly economically speaking I would say no, emotionally speaking the answer is absolutely!
