Crockett and Jones Onslow/Henley: is the apron hand stitched?

[Mr. Moo]

I put an order in for the Henley in shell cordovan today from Pediwear (crossing fingers they have the shoe in stock as stated on their webpage) and I am wondering if A) the apron is hand stitched and B) if anyone has photos of this shoe "in the wild". I could not find a single photo of them other than the Pediwear/Plal/Northampton photo (one in the same).

Thanks.

I have the Darlton. I am boycotting new Alden purchases for a while. The Harvard is unlined and looked too much like an Alden LHS copy.

I would get the Onslow myself had it been in dark brown shell rather than burgundy

Onslow is nice,does anyone except for pediwear have them? Pediwear seems to have smaller sizes.

Yes, these are quite nice. But I do not own a loafer and wanted one in shell.

Moo,why not Alden shell or are you now done with Alden?

I hope it works out for you, Moo (customs, your size in stock, etc), but I will laugh ****** off when you open the box to find one shoe considerably darker than the other

Yes, at least for the time being.

Ugh, believe me... I will

all over the place if that happens. I might just revert back to Taryn Rose thirds from Neiman Marcus Last Call.

Typical me, I didnt even read your OP, just the title. Anyways, are these the shoes you are interested in ? Pics from http://ethandesu.blogspot.com/2010/0...al-orders.html
