Glad to hear the fitting was fine.

Regardless, the 9AM fitting for the seamless stitchless buffalo whole cuts was a success. A second order was placed for my first pair of black shoes in a long time

For black shoes, these really wow me and that's saying something.

As a person who only wears black shoes, I think there is now and entire range just for me.

yes i think they are quite nice, and it is quite nice too to see the range and that all the samples are black for me which is the purest form

they are very sleak but in quite a minimal way and very 3D so it was hard to capture them perfect perhaps yfyf did a better job i dont think the last will be for all but if you like Corthay's last's and the U Last from Vass then this last will be pleasing - i hope Tony add a less sleek version of this and also round toed too but i think that will be a few years off​

sound advice, mate

agree with the round toe and with the expected time frame, though

the pigskin itself is really what catched my eyes through the years. fabulicious.

I liked that croc loafer a lot, would never pull the trigger on it though. unfortunately you need to be a bit more mediterranean looking than me and be able to pull off the sockless look whilst standing on the deck of your yacht in St Tropez, which I don't do well

Real bummer
