That may actually work perfectly with my upcoming TDY to Georgia....driving so it's on the way both ways...thank you!!!

Not a problem; call and set up a time you plan to be there to be safe and make sure the tailor is available.

Tell them Stephen sent you...oh and they really like military members.

Resolution Day #36 - Garnet Shell Strands

Maiden voyage of the shell Strands.

Purchased these a couple of months after the 2017 trunk show. I was lucky to have an SA who could find this color for me.

A very slight patina is starting to develop, and I really like it.

Wow, very nice! You have some hidden gems there. I am curious to see what’s next.

The expert advice I saw there (repeatedly and vigorously) was "never saddle soap") though...
You know, if I were selling a generic product with a slim margin, I sure would be looking for a proprietary product with better margins. I don’t think saddle soap is as bad as it is made out to be nor do I think other products are as awesome as thier claims. Reno comes to mind.

There. I fixed that for you.

Normally yes, but with an anniversary dinner at a 3 michelin star restaurant coming up (along with 5 nights in a NYC hotel) AND a trip to EDC Vegas coming up, it's one of the above. Plus she's getting her first pair of Carminas on that NYC trip.

+1 on that. I hear the, “experts,” on here decrying how horrible saddle soap is. I’ve used it for years on my shoes with no adverse issues. I suspect those that had bad experiences were either just unlucky, or didn’t know what they were doing.

Those are bananas! I mean how do you live among us mortals? What I wouldn't do for HALF of your collection. Just beautiful!
