Hey DW, how many shoes do you work on at a time? Only one from start to completion, and then move to the next? Or do you do a bunch of them together in stages (welt all at same time, then move to finishing them all, etc

@jerrybrowne I saw those on @ntempleman's instagram, and was just blown away. They're some of the nicest loafers I've ever seen, so wear them well! Make sure to post pics of them in action.

Thank you! I'll make sure to post pics once they break in.

Jerrybrowne, you've tried several of "the best" shoemakers already. Have you ever written on SF about the differences between the make, fit and so on? You should know a thing or two by now...


I haven't done this yet, but would be happy to once things die down at work.

Bespoke Cleverley. First pair - some fit issues to be fixed, but beautiful to my eyes at least
