Hello,

I'm selling my brand new "Stephane Jimenez Bottier" bespoke shoes.

I commissionned it in may 2015 and paid it the same year in november.
I received it few days ago, the 29th june 2020.

The pair is absolutely new, unworn, not even tried.

It's a tree buttons balmoral, green calf and light brown suede.
We chosen the leaters together in february 2016 at "Decourt Fils" leather shop, near Angouleme, France. (I doubt that the pair has been actually craft with these skins)

Included accessories are:
Bespoke shoetrees, made by Hervé Brunelle
Original dustbags (They has been delivered without the cords that you usually expect in dustbags.... Don't ask me why, I don't know.)
The original Edward Green box that was used for delivery. ("Delivery" is actually not the good word as I had to go by myself pick the pair in a cobbler shop in Bordeaux. Shipping was not possible. Awesome.)

Despite the fact that the pair is absolutely new, three of the six buttons have a default and are partially broken (Shards missing in englaish ?). Probably a final touch of original craftmanship.
Should not interfere with opening/closing and could be easily replaced by a good cobbler.

About fitting: I usually wear a true 7.5 E UK from Edwrad Green.
Despite my totally regular feets, two trial fitting appointments was not enough.
After years of waiting and up messages, I obviously chose to not plan a third appointment. (As we say in French: "Shortest joke are the best")
So I don't really know on wich last it has been crafted.

Here's some usual measurements:
Outsole length: 29,7 cm
Outsole width: 10 cm
Shoetrees length: 28.5 cm
Shoetrees max width: 9.2 cm

Feel free to understand why I will have absolutely no pleasure to wear it and rather prefer to have some cash back on it.
However, they can quite delight someone who has not had to undergo this pitiful performance.


You will find some HD picture on my eBay listing: https://www.ebay.fr/itm/293631372278
Back in 2015, the starting prices was €6K, I get rid of it for € 2450 outside eBay.
(Please spare me any wacky "offer")

You can try it in Bordeaux, France.

Feel free to ask me anything, I would be pleased to help you!
