Bunny, I must admit that I'm not sure if they ship overseas.

As I understand it, they're basically a European forerunner of sites such as Gilt and My Habit. I always just assumed that they didn't ship to Australia and so didn't bother investigating.

I am quite excited today I just received second hand pair of Shell Cordovan C&J Harvard from a forum member. and when I say second hand there is practically no ware on the soles at all.

I was quite worried about the fit not having bought C&J before, the over all fit is quite good although a little snug across from the big toe knuckle ( if that is the correct term? ) so I am thinking that they should become a little less snug in that area with a few days ware or should I take them to cobbler and have them stretched a little by some one whom knows what he is doing.

I will post some photos shortly if any one is interested.

It is, although they are unlined and seem to have no significant stitching over the point where the discomfort is, so it could go either way.

I'd wear them for short periods a few times to see if it goes away on its own.
