Ruby color as a Chukka!

Did I mention that this would rock as a wingtip!

I'm actually pretty bummed about the ruby wholecut. I would love a shoe in ruby, and I've been dying for a nice wholecut, but I just can't stand the look of the wingtip on the wholecut.

Oh well, you can't please everyone!

I don't like the wholecut wingtip. I like the one NAMOR posted. As much as I like the color of Ruby I couldn't be down with that wingtip wholecut. I would like a plain wholecut in either saddle of cognac shell.

I think the ruby just looks great as a wingtip. perhaps it could even be an austerity wingtip

I agree that a ruby wingtip would look nice, I just think that the brogue look clashes with the wholecut.

I'd be happy with that one as is or the 3rd shoe from the left in Ruby. What about Epaulet's Fitzgerald in Ruby?

Agreed. If that ruby wingtip gets made up I'm a guaranteed buy.

I would rock a ruby shell chukka with a chunky antique double sole and storm welt.
