Overpriced, IMO. Not up to JL or EG standards. I'd put the Scribe line on a similar quality tier with top-of-the-line C&J. Maybe a tiny bit higher. Definitely not in the same punching class as the shoes it competes with in price.
Definitely a good shoe, but if you're going to pay full retail or close to it, there are better options.
really? the VASH?
Just a question.. How does the Scribe line from Bally compare against the John Lobbs and the Edward Greens? Thanks!

AB, i wholeheartedly disagree; i wanted to bring this topic up recently as i visited my local Bally and the Scribe line has gotten alot better in quality. almost too good for its price of 795. the lasts are sleeker (imo actually comparable to JL's lasts, matter of taste still, but before it was a clunky design), the soles are much nicer, (double sole ones were completely amazing) but the leathers are the same , but still with the better design/lasts and the sturdier soles these shoes look like a good deal compared to the JLs (and admittedly EGs as they arent 850 anymore)
