I have the Alfred Sargent and the Weymouth (with broguing). I am a big fan of Alfred Sargent, and would recommend the handgrades without question, but I think the finish on the Weymouth is closer to the Berlutti that reader asks about. The Alfred Sargent in brown has a bit of a matte finish, and does not seem to polish to a smooth finish. (This is strange because the AS in black and tan both polish up very very nicely.) As far as value, I think that the AS is much less expensive than the CJ. I have the AS in an 8.5 (F?) and have put innersoles in it because it is a tad too big. I have the CJ in an 8 (F?) and it is very tight in the ball of the foot. I may need to have it stretched. Bic
