Hartmann vs. Glaser Designs vs. Lotuff & Clegg
I have no experience with Hartmann, but regarding duffles, L&C uses a thicker leather than GD with pronounced "graining." GD likely would be more accommodating to customizing a standard model. Materials aside, workmanship on L&C and GD are comparable, but with a slight tip to...- July

WW Chan's March Tour
Yao's workmanship isn't comparable to Chan's in my limited experience. Chan's is arguably superior. Yao is also relatively inflexible in terms of style; that is, he has his notion of what looks good and will try to persuade you to agree. That said, I think the "house style" is...- July

Care for scotch grain leather
Thanks, all, for your input. One reason I like scotch grain is that it can take a beating and it doens't seem like one needs to take as good care of it.

Care for scotch grain leather
Are there any special considerations for scotch grain-specific shoe care? I assume that conditioners, cremes and waxes will work just as they do for calf. Am I wrong?- July

John Lobb sizing oddity
