speaking of ravello, this auction will be VERY interesting to watch.

quite a shame this is in my size....

wondering if I trimmed the ends of my toes off a bit could I squeeze into an 11 

Why do people bid on items so early? it only increases cost 

Oh man... think I just drooled on my laptop. Wish it were my size. 

I'm both sad and happy this isn't in my size...

Just FYI: Citishoes calls whiskey shell "Brandy shell." I've inquired of that specifically.

Kathy at Alden DC is great. I recently acquired from her a pair of Ravello captoes (perf tip) with medallion toe, on the Plaza last, with double leather soles. It is a stunning shoe.

Wow those are gorgeous... Are those the historic Day Tripper's?

some shell boot porn. All size 12..

nice

Yeah...absolutely gorgeous boots. I'm waiting for when Leffot receives the second run of them. Either this month or next, hopefully. Got on the order list last October. 

#8 bleed

Man... I'm going crazy looking for Ravello plain toe boots or cap toe boots. I don't even need them in the next year, I'm just looking for someone who would be put me on the pre-order list so I feel like there's some sort of progress being made. Leffot said that they won't take more pre-orders as they don't know when more Ravello shells are being made - does anyone know other pre-order etc going on?

I've apparently got a nasty completionist streak that these shoes just wake up in me.

Not sure where you got that estimated delivery date, I have been on that list since February and last I heard was mid to late 2013, if that.
