    Not sure. This is the first one I've had done.

    It was not and I was actually a little surprised when I saw it. I've seen this top lift before in pictures so I just assumed it was standard for recrafts. No special requests other than confirming original color stitching and edge color would be used. As previously mentioned, I had been using...

    Yep Also, for anyone wondering, they did use brown stitching although it does look almost black from the top. From the bottom you can clearly tell it's brown though.

    They did. They are a bit darker than when they went in, but still very soft and broken in.

    Got my Park Avenues back from recrafting today. Very happy with the results.

    Ha, is it really a shoe shape? I always just thought it was a random mark. I'll have to go look at mine now.

    Holy crap those are awesome. No idea what I'd wear them with, but I'd find a way. I've always been tempted to get olive Strandmoks or Neumoks. Green shell is something else though.

    Wow, if those were my size I'd be very tempted.

    Well, the chili does look good on walnut shoes so it's just personal preference really.

    Alright, I assume they just misspoke calling it walnut and they'll come back with neutral then. If I don't like it, should be easy to apply chili to darken it up. As long as they're not dark brown or black I'm good.

    I'll let you know in a few weeks when I get mine back. I have a feeling they'll be darker as mine were pretty light. Just hope it looks good. On another note, i always thought the edges on mine were chili color and that's the edge dressing I've been using. I was corrected in the email I sent...

    I sent them an email and received a response stating that they have seen black stitching used from time to time, but that it shouldn't be. They let the production manager know that I wanted the welt, stitching, and edge dressing as it was when it came in so I should be good to go.

    I hope this isn't true because I have Walnut PA's in for recrafting now and not sure I want black thread used on them.

    I admittedly don't keep up with much AE news. I knew the old CEO was gone and I guess someone has bought them. Has something else happened in the past few days? I have no doubt the company will be destroyed in the long run as I work for a corporation and know how they think. As of now though...

    Well, this thread sure turned depressing.

    Agreed. I have a bit of creasing on the cap of my favorite Park Avenues. They fit like a glove though so I manage to get over it.

    Decided to start trying some Saphir products to maintain my shoes. Just finished my chili Lexingtons this morning. Liking it so far.
