    2 questions, as I have been long pondering one of these pairs... 1. Anybody know what factory from Spain these come from? I have my guess on which company was subbed to manufacture... 2. Are the soles oak bark pit slow tanned like Bakers or JR?

    580 GBP ex vat isnt Crockett and Jones Handgrade pricing. HGs are about 450 Ex Vat full MSRP, so there is still a big price price premium to thier lower line

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    Question on lasts - the 337 vs. the 236 for Oxfords. I wear a 6.5E UK on the 337. It fits well, good fit on the instep and well proportioned in the toe box. As a comparison on my feet, on the 348 for a 6.5E UK, the toe box feels a bit too compressed and i dont like it. The instep on 348 is OK...

    at what point do you think diminishing returns are reached for shoe leather quality?

    So first off, Loake only banned UK retailers from selling internet orders to us in order to help the domestic supply base. At full MSRP, Loake 1880 is about $340. They cost less than AE, have the same standards about, and are much more consistent in quality. Styleforum did fine guessing my 2...

    AE Park Avenue in Black - what is the "appropriate" formality to pair with them?

    Black captoe oxfords are generally good with most business attires. Suit and tie, suit no tie, sportcoat, slacks/shirt only. I have no idea when sales are, but AE are not worth anything close to $425 MSRP. There are better deals/values with entry level and mid level english makes. The biggest...
