I pulled the chukkas from the classified... Cordo chukkas go great with chinos (better than the Indy boots, which shine with jeans)
I've learned to live with the creasing on these - my next cordovan chukkas will be in 9.5E instead of 10D though (this will minimize creasing)



nephew,
you made the right decision
use the method to eliminate the scratchs

Edit - Special thanks to Keith for getting the whiskey Indy produced via the Alden MTO Thread.

That's a lovely whiskey. Almost bumped the ravello captoes from the top of my wishlist

I don't know if it's just the lighting or what, but Mac's Whiskey Indys look so much darker than CTYGGG's....they almost look like Ravello in that pic actually. But, they both look amazing - the beauty of exotic shell. I have a Whiskey and a Ravello on pre-order, but it will be over a year before I get both of them. Need to wait patiently...

Cigar cordovan longwings would be my choice.

does anyone have an 11.5 "seconds" list from TSM? i'm sure the good stuff is sold out, just curious what they had. for some reason, I ended up on the 9.5 list, even tho I'm 11.5/12.

if so, please send over to kwhitelaw01 @ comcast.net.

thank you!
