I think it is made by C&J.

but the nails!? the nails???? i have several pairs of C&J branded shoes and the nail pattern is different. However, the writing, font, etc inside the shoes is identical

single row is CJ, double is AS

this shoe will indefinitely go straight to the clearance rack, and when it does...

thanks for the clarification, pebblegrain. Now what about the nails at the dovetail? dont C&J shoes have 3 nails?

A while back, somebody posted the Fall preview, and I stated that I would kop the 2-3 sack patch pocket camelhair sportcoat at full price. Not at $1450 I won't! Bleh!

^^^^ They would have been cool if the hairy part was just the saddle.

That was Jesus Christ referring to Helena Rubinstein right?

Back to the original question/post.


So what is the big deal about whether C&J or AS made the shoes?

Is one suppose to be better than the other? Do you have more bragging rights with one than the other?

A spilt toe double sole marked 11d is on eBay and the outsole is 317 mm while my Darltons marked 10.5 are 323mm. Both are afaik on same last and have the same sole. So can outsole length be comparable in this case ? Does the split toe run small ?

I have 11 in both models so if you are 10.5 in darltons, they might be too big for you.

Are the chukka boots with three eyelets a different maker than those with two eyelets?
