    Thank you all (Patrick, Trav & DW) for the input on my situation. I understand there's a lot of options in leather repair/care and hearing all the different options possible is quite intriguing. To be more specific with my goal, the bag has to look uniform in color, as it's a handmade gift...

    Hi Gents, Does anyone know of a professional shoe antiquing service in Europe? Recently I manufactured a line of suede weekender bags and one of them turned out a bit different than I wanted. I'd like to have someone professionally darken the light mint green color to a dark navy blue.

    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    The topic of a workers appearance can relate to their pride in the quality of their work is an interesting subject. I think there is some truths in both management a top down / bottom up approach to production. If an employee wishes to take more time, or redo a section of a shoe because it...

    Enzo Bonafe Handmade Shoes.

    Thank you Roger! I'm absolutely loving them, and can't believe how comfortable they are. I was under the impression that cordovan could be a very dense material which could cause some discomfort over extend periods, but I haven't had one problem with them yet. @Leaves Those makeups sound...

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.
