Typically 1/2 up for Grant from Barrie, yes.

are those the "custom-died" blue seude chukkas?

yes, this is the pair that I killed with blue shoe polish

As nice as those cigar Captoes were, from Alden DC.... I just got a call for an 8.5 and had to pass on them. There may be a pair available. Just throwing it out there.

What number you were supposed to be on the list?

Pretty insane that they are still kicking those things around, but I guess if you consider that they may have been shipped to a few different customers and then shipped back, it is not so hard to believe.

DV, awesome pics and a beautiful surrounding. Nice to see a work boot being used for work like stuff.
DV, excellent LWBs. Nice to see them starting to patina. You clearly had good taste from the onset.
Uncle, love the horse bit loafers. I ended up picking up the black cod version. Does yours have a gold or silver bit?
