But the overall design of a Blucher with a rounded toe hasn't won me over yet

I still enjoyed the sleeker looking designs of your G&G Bespoke.

Which color Cordovan did you use....Shell#8/Bourdeaux or Brown/Cigar?

Is that really bordo shell? Looks like dark brown on my screen.

As E.T. and others confirmed, (so I'm not paranoid yet

), I can't tell if the color is Bourdeux or Cigar

I would not consider this Vass as a sleek design. Luk-chas Bespoke G&G are defintely sleek

well i will quote myself in saying that they are #8 or Bordo' shell on the 3636 with a full goyser welt, but they have come out more oxblood looking in the pictures.

gun boat if i use the term correctly are any shoes loved or owned by fritzl

or in the same vein

and are more sterdy looking and made with a last which is more blunt and rounded


Sator you right with most not loving G&G uber sleek lasts it seem i cant win without posting sleek shoes now

There's rather an inaccuracy in your statement, my friend

In my book, they are slightly different from the "typical" gun-boats. Certainly in the same vein. For more observations, you can have a look here also: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=57955

G., I/we don't have/use this term. But, what I read through the fora it describes all the "Trad" stuff like Alden's, Kenmoore wingtips, Florsheim Imperial etc. ...
