My dears,
is there any way to find out beforhand whether shoes are made from corrected grain leather or better stuff just from the looks?
I tend to buy shoes on the internet, due to a geographical handicap, so it would be good to know.
(I read what Andy said about Barker, a maker I kind of respect; even a cheap pair Iown aren't CG. Without ever having seen a par of Barkers, Andy seems to be able to see what leathers they use. Where do I learn that skill?
