    For starters, the colours and the composition is very nice. It really sets the mood. Also, it's probably because the boots stand out from the rest of the background, in focus with the rest of the image out of focus. The result of a nice lens. I like the picture very much too. Beautiful.

    I had a pair of 924 Norwegian Front (one of the most versatile shoes I've ever owned suitable for both formal and casual occasions) that I really beat up by wearing them at least 3-4 times a week and it took me almost 4 years to really wear them out (i.e. I nearly went thru both leather soles)...

    I'm guessing those are a custom model for that HK store? Yes, these are special make-ups for Hong Kong. As far as I know, these shoes are not available elsewhere. If you're interested, please send me an email ([email protected]) and I'll check to see if we still have your size as they have...

    Opinions on these Magnannis

    I have 3 pairs of unworn Magannis, I did try them on and think they are nice shoes. Agreed with what others have said, great colour but bit pointy

    Are these gucci shoes real ???

    hm........ that's interesting because I worked at eBay for 3 years looking after Top Sellers, i.e. Titanium PowerSellers. For abusive buyers like the ones you described who file after 3 days of transaction end, Trust and Safety would look into the buyer's behavior and often suspend them for...
