    Anthony Delos sells out to LVMH

    LVMH is not interested by the "Delos" brand, but by Anthony Delos who is one of the greatest bootmakers of the moment. As a client of Anthony, I am a bit sad.

     As I have said in the topic dedicated to Delos, he is largely above Foster. And not only in terms of fitting. But in terms of fitting, Delos makes a glove, Foster makes a shoe which adds no value compared to RTW. I can even say that, to my feet, the Simpson last from Carmina or the 7000...

     Very interesting. I have one pair from Anthony Delos and one from Foster : clearly not the same league in terms of fitting.

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

     It seems to be a cordovan model, on the forest last (don't understand why the pic disappears when I quote...)

    Balmoral on Simpson last. Very good fitting (to my feet) and nice leather.

    Shoe Damage Report & Shoe P0rn Central - Part II

     I have kept one chestnut pair of shoes, very casual, in scotch grain. Very classic in France too, the 180 loafer from JM Weston :

     Thanks. I put sometimes mahogany cream on the dark brown to have some nuances.

     You're right. But I need some of the fantastic Barbera's clothes ;-)

     On dark brown, you could do a clear burnishing like on this shoe (WS Foster) :

     The chestnut burnishing is ok, but a bit difficult to wear with suits imo. But in terms of evolution, it's really more interesting than any dark leather of course.

    Shoe Damage Report & Shoe P0rn Central - Part II

     Maybe, you can ask. In Paris where I live, burnishings are generally made by people who are specialized in burnishings, but they are not shoemakers. There are some shoe stores which can make burnishing too, on shoes on their own brands, like JM Weston or Septième Largeur. You can try...
