My new Indy shoes off of eBay...I love them! Perfect for this summer when the Indy boots get a bit warm

Dexter, where did you get those shell indy's with the hand sewn toe stitching and the eyelets all the way up?

They're perfect.

Those Indy shoes are from Winn Perry - if you want them you might check with them, but apparently only 12 were made so far. I wanted them bad but couldn't swing Full price ($450) but once I saw them on ebay it was go time.
