why?

It was an Alden thing - Not worth a lot of epxlanation, but we all can get a little frustrated from time to time. I couldn't quit kick the habit. No rehab for me. smile.gif

there seems to be a lot of new Ravello shoes showing up at a bunch of different retailers lately.....hopefully this means the almost 2 year wait for Epaulet's Ravello Brixton boot will almost be over

I was wondering how long it would take for the ravello kirkwood info to drop on the thread. Ordered mine earlier this morning. Bet their phones are ringing now.

Do the ravello Kirkwoods at Unionmade have a light or dark welt?

I'm still debating on whether to keep my ravello chukkas or not. If anyone wants an unworn (un-tried on, in fact) pair sized 9.5E at retail, let me know.

I know the reasons why I like cordovan.  The smell, the no polish shine that is unmistakably shell cordovan, the way it creases and the prestige/exclusivity.

 

I also was wondering about all the ravello that has been popping up.  Thought there was supposed to be a prolonged shortage, but seems to have only lasted a few months.  I wonder if its safe to start ordering out-of-stock ravello models from TSM without having to wait 2 years.

 

Edit: Popa Doble, Congrats on the Maiden Voyage.  I had been waiting to see you bust em out!

On a very personal note, serious kudos to Mr. Chorizo for this PSA. fistbump.gif
