    Ongoing Bespoke Projects

    Seamaster Lux's example reflects my recent experience with WW Chan. They listened to what I wanted and got the specs right at the first fitting, including a clean back. It was a pleasurable experience. I must say WWC has become a crack unit compared to when they did my first suit years back.

    Carlos Santos, Maftei, NPS, John Lakes by Shoes Fever : Official Affiliate Thread

    Hi Shoes Fever! I am interested in the CS French U-tip in black grain.

    Pediwear Shoes - Official Thread

    Hi Pediwear/Mike, size 8.5F in the Heschung Catalpa is a tad long for me and has a bit of heel slippage but the width is ok. How does the Heschung Fustet compare? I'd think that the elongated last of the Fustet implies a narrower last than the Odeon of the Catalpa? Thanks.

    Newc's Bespoke Adventure.

    Pediwear Shoes - Official Thread

    .You list the Carmina Emilio 80512 as having the ”Burdeos” last. I checked the Carmina lasts in the net, and found no burdeos among them.

    I agree, nice job indeed, especially considering your body shape and size.

    If GH OTR is the best fit, it would help if you wear the garment when you get measured, as well as bring pictures of the pagoda shoulder you have in mind. I've had Gordon make me a roped shoulder a few years back and it looked OK. Still wear the suit today.
