From his own site? Good choice in any case, though the GW black cap toe I linked previously is really tempting for myself as well, just don’t need more than one black shoes...

I liked the captoe but these were in my size and figured they would go better with black tie. I got them from the Yeossal website.

My first mecariello's.

Ended up picking up these:

I hope they look like this!

Very nice, and I don't think you'll be disappointed. The retailer's pics aren't the best. I have one of his other black cap toes, and I tend to grab it over my similar Vass. It seems to hold a shine better, and every inch of the leather used appears to be top notch.

I have always liked black freudenberg calf. The images from the instagram are AM's for yeossal, which made more confidant!

too early to do another GMTO, but anyone has interest something like museum black, i.e. black/dark grey patina, (i.e. Foster and Son kind sun bleached effect, but not as ridiculous)

I could do a black museum double monk as long as the museum effect is subtle? On a soft square or almond last?

Although might be a tough sell to get enough joiners.

Here are a couple of possibilities I would be interested in a black museum (either soft square or chisel 2):

I actually don't know how black museum truly look like, the F&S/GG kind of color scheme looks really interesting, very a more subtle version of it?
