I mean the throat line, sorry, I've never learned the correct shoe vocabulary.

I know, I call that shape the "Butt Throat". Chay Cooper laughed when I told him.

Westbury price has gone up again. Is Barney's pricing tied to immediate spikes in demand?
That is, did their system notice a spike in Westbury sales, and hike the price up accordingly?

I think that you are referring to Westbury in black calf. That one was never on the sale. The Westburies in Vintage Pine were on sale.

didn't you have a pair of green tramezzas a few years ago? or am I halucinating......AGAIN?

They were Edward Greens....and my first foray in to GG was a pair of racing green Sinatras years ago that were way too tight. Always had a few near misses, hope this nails it.

my gable were snug at first but became very comfortable after the 3rd wear. I have enough shoes to last a while but the sale was too good to pass up.

Yeah, i think so.

Gonna try again later with a different pair of socks on my feet, something thicker.

This while thing has me very sad.

it comes with the territory. im very conscious of the fact my shoes are $500 - $1,500/ pair. thus im acutely sensitive to ill-fitting shooz
