Lovely stuff. Shoji's a good friend of a good friend over in Japan, so I'm always glad to hear he's doing well. He's an honourable fellow though from what I gather, and wouldn't show a you anything he wasn't happy with himself.

Shoji is very nice to work with. The leather is an old stock freudenberg, and it was extremely nice and smooth. Can't wait to wear them and to see if I need any changes for the next.

Looks spectacular. Almond Freudenberg has an aged chestnut leather feel to me. Congrats with your new Marquess!

I love the pictures in this thread. Don't always comment, but always look.

Yes the Japanese have taken the craft to a whole new level- the finishing is just spectacular. I get the same feeling of awe in this thread as i did when I first saw high end (C&J) shoes
