both of us are biased to the "learned" style, we grew up. on a random note: a friend of mine is looking for the perfect "norweger" since years. we both have the opinion that there are two styles in the shoeworld which are "difficult". the budapester and the norweger. it's minor details, but they are and we talk about them for hours, though. iirc, he's going bespoke now...


interesting Fritzl - so what's his perfect Norweger? got a Vass on P2 in the pipeline, and it's a style Vass does well, as you've said, but a long way from a Dover which I also love. (Agree with others the Dover is a better balance than the GG) and for that matter who does best Buda? thx
