For sale on Ebay is a pair of John Lobb Eaton loafers in Tan/Light Brown Ardilla Buffalo Calf leather, in mint condition with absolutely pristine uppers as photographed.

Ebay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/131193788942?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649
Current bidding price is $113.50.

The inside of the shoes are marked EATON 7. The marked size is UK size 7, which is approximately US size 8.

Measurements are:
External sole length: 11.0" tip to heel
External sole forefoot widest part: 4" wide


Internal sole (insole) length: 10 7/16"
Internal sole (insole) widest portion at forefoot: 3 3/8" wide


As with the last pair of John Lobbs I listed, I bought this pair of John Lobbs before I found out that I needed an extra wide shoe, and hence have worn them probably less than 5 times in total! There is mild wear to the soles as pictured.

The uppers are pristine without any scratches, gouges or stains; see closeup photos of the grain and stitching. I took extremely good care of these shoes; the leather was polished with high end shoe creams and the shoes were always stored with shoe trees in place in the original John Lobb yellow felt pouches and boxes.

The grain and color of the Ardilla Buffalo Calf is simply amazing - I have been in love with them since I bought them, but unfortunately have to face the fact that they are the wrong size for my feet!

Included are the pair of beautifully shaped cedar shoe trees by To Boot New York, as well as the original yellow felt John Lobb shoe bags and shoe box as pictured.

New retail price is around $1300 or so. Get a amazing deal on the some of the best handmade shoes ever made!

Email with any questions. All photos listed are of the actual pair of shoes for sale. Local NYC buyers are welcome to pick up!
