I thought I start a thread were we can post pictures of Anthony Delos' work and some other things that are related to him, rather than have 5 or 6 threads about him.

Here are some links to older/different threads :

Here is something Anthony is working on :

An oxford in cherry calf, with an added cap-toe, chiseled toe. A medallion that will be in goat-suede.
It shall also be slightly punched, around the medallion and at the stitching of the cap-toe. There will be no added back quarters.

What you see here are the pictures of the trial pair :

First time I am touching them :


Showing them off to the photograph :


Anthony is checking the fitting :



To be continued, with ugly pictures of the pair being cut open.

Yes, pretty close, we may just cream them with some black to add some shades. Mind you, the cap-toe will be the same colour as the rest. Only the medallion will be a different colour and material.

Why has one shoe a toe cap, but not the other one? - Is that design or can't you just get off the fence?

Jenny points a moral with which you cannot quarrel,
Makes a lot of common sense--
Jenny and her saga prove that you're gaga
If you don't keep sitting on the fence

Jenny and her story point the way to glory
To all man and womankind
Anyone with vision comes to this decision--
Don't make up your mind

"Saga of Jenny" - Music: Kurt Weill, Lyrics: Ira Gershwin​

That's because the toe-caps won't be in a contrasting colour and the trial pair had to be done within 2 weeks.

Just to be difficult - I quite like the contrasting vamp and toe-cap
