Grenson Albert or C&J Finsbury
The Finsbury has a gorgeous medallion and is certainly better quality than the Grenson Albert. The 341 last on the Finsbury is the perfect combination of sleekness without being noticeable fashion forward.

PSA: SW1 shoe store closing

We indeed faced a dramatic decrease of sales starting in September last year, we had to cut costs and at the end we went a bit in a negative loop and with one only person in the shop part time.

Thanks fo the suggestion Pabloj. We will definitely think about it although I believe we could use it only for specific items....Kindest regards. Fra Why don't you put up an eBay shop like Tricker's did? With a limited investment you'd gain access to a much wider audience.- fra

fra, you should add a "patine & glacage" service like the french! Hi Pabloj, although not mentioned in the website we in fact had a person dedicated to this service (the Italian way, just a bit antiquing and shades, see the shoe in my avatar) with a small surcharge on the normal price. He left...- fra
