Never thought I'd purchase black shell for I thought black was boring...I was wrong. Machine stitching it is...great eye. The machine stitching is very smooth and uniform compared to my cigar Indy's which are hand stitched. The Leydon is a great last not as chunky as the Barrie and TTS...definetly not my last Leydon purchase. As for where I purchased them...TSM seconds list. I took a flyer on them and they worked out great. Anyone know which retailer they were made for? Any help on that question is greatly appreciated.

Gotta say Ranger those Ravello LWB's are sweet and look great. I've been known to fit in a 9E on the Barrie…

No problem, always glad to help out a fellow forum member. Couldn't really detect what made 'em seconds, so I decided they were worth keeping. : )

Thanks mcarthur. The crepe sole is really growing on me…great for casual wear & when you need to put walking miles on. The crepe makes for a really flexible sole similiar to the flex welt…comfy right outta the box. Just another Alden tool in the toolbox.

Mac - for a guy who claims to be colorblind, you sure have some excellent shoe, sock, and pants combos. I like this.
