anyone know the model number of these carminas?

233

It looks like Simpson last for what that's worth. The quarters are the same as my Simpson PTBs.

Knowing who the OP was, I was able to find the post. He labeled them as: cognac, ruby, cuero, bordeaux, black, olive.

There's a closeup of the ruby shoe (I think) here.

That might be tempting enough to end my 'no buy' streak.

NAMOR + shell cordovan + SF = evil. (I realize that this make's me Satan's Little Helper in this instance.) Since Corthay has already taken Satan, maybe these ruby slippers should be los Diablos.
