Sorry to dig this old thread...... I have checked these shoes at a store in Sydney. These shoes are really well made.And there are many classic models (such as cap toe) Really solid the sole is work of art . Once you pick up a pair of JC you will recognize them from miles away . Ask me why ? The sole on these shoes are so damn straight - I mean you will not see a pair of shes with such straight sole. They sit on the shelf just flat. They are welted and channeled. Leather quality is top notch . All of their dress shoes comes with Flash mount toe tap (black rubber piece with 3 nails). The craftsman ship on these are flawless(I mean you will not find a blemish on leather or on stitching).These shoes are a perfect combination of English solid built quality and Italian sleekness. These are retailing at around $950+ which I would not pay.But I will happily buy them on sale at around $600.
I am surprised how so many members here posted negative comments about these shoes. Gents go to a store and get your hands on a pair ........ then post your comments.

Can anyone else confirm the quality of JC construction? Worth it at 50-70% off?
