After another agonizing wait I present to you the G&G Hughes. Celebrate with me: I have finally received my modified Hughes shoe on the MH71 last in vintage cherry. I do really like the colour which is not quite true on my monitor... it is really a browny pink. "Vintage cherry" is a good description. So to answer JJL5000's excellent post; no, your's weren't the last of the flexible G&G modifications... mine might be. Check 'em out. J

Sweeeet! Cherry sweet! And I am indeed celebrating with you.

The colour is just amazing and I'd dare say "wear it with a navy suit!"

As CG mentioned, the brogueing is just stunning and the beveling of the sole is out of this world.

How long did you wait for these, if I may ask? Exactly how agonising was "agonising"?
