That is awesome. So you had them re-soled and the cobbler added in the Goyser welt at your request?

Well thanks, I guess you're right, the problem I think is some of my stuff is too new or if they're not I have a fairly big rotation and don't wear as often. On top, my pics are not that nice. I need to wear them damn shoos 10 days in a row, then go outside and find some nice trees, grass or deck of woods and shoot the pics :D . or do something interesting like the gentleman who posted a pic of his shoe in the middle of the cobbled street in the shoe Appreciation thread. That tile in my living roon is too cold.

not exactly. this is not my shoe. the task was to restore an old pair of shoes.

my cobbler did it. his teacher forgot to mention that this pair should compete at the championsship in wiesbaden and he gave it back to the owner. after the shoe had been worn it was disqualified for the competition. nevertheless they showed them to the jury and they approved for gold medal if it would have been in the competition.
