Really glad to see a Potter & Sons video covering the trunk show! I doesn't really cover a whole bunch but it's short and to the point.

Just one question: dUndee or dundEE??

I actually think dundEE sounds awesome, just never thought of it that way before!


EDIT: What a fool I've been... Exhibit A Exhibit B

I believe Paul Hogan would like to have a word sir.

I wasn't alive in 1986, excuse my ignorance!

I happen to be a classically trained musician, so your quarrel is not with me!

So you probably don’t have a blockbuster card either... I kid.

I kinda was (performance major for a couple years) but grew weary of many of my colleagues' "self-confidence". That's me being a gentleman.

So i decided to hunt people instead and man what a rush.

(truth be told it was a challenge just not the challenge i was looking for....found one that's worked pretty well)

Received word that these are almost ready to be sent back to me. So relieved to get rid of that horrible Vibram Christy sole. Also upgraded with a steel shank.

That boot's upper looks pretty similar to the pattern on my Cascades (234 last).

 

[ProfilaBinding]

@darkclassic Yes, It's the same last, and similar in design. The leather on my pair is nubuck. The Rothsay is similar to the Cascade.

I tried classical music training until I found out that I had no talent.

Speaking of Classical Music, I'm wearing my vintage Black Cherry Shell Bristols today:

Thought I found a steal on eBay until I saw the photos of the heels...

I freely admit that I rarely use a shoe horn, but I at least always use a finger to make sure I don't destroy the heel counter like this.

All square with my 2019 trunk show purchases. Now I can focus on my suede arriving.

That is very nice! My son was born in 1983 and he wouldn't listen to classical music to save his life. What instrument do you play or are you a vocalist? Are you currently an active professional musician?
