So I was going to purchase a pair of black cap toe oxfords. I have never owned a pair, I always went with something else (whole cut, wing tip, brown/burgundy cap toe, anything but the black cap toe).
I lined up about 10 different brands in the $400-600’ish price range. Carmina, TLB Mallorca, Carlos Santos, Joseph Cheaney, Cobbler Union, etc...
I let my wife pick her favorite of the bunch. She went with J Fitzpatrick. (Completely blind pick, she doesn’t know the brands, and she wasn't looking at the prices)
Anyway, we put in some YouTube’s of J Fitzpatrick, specifically the Kirby Allison, to check out the brand a bit. In one of the videos Justin showed his Whittier (Oxford with the apron cut) and my wife said no the black cap toes, I was buying the Whittier MTO.
I guess the cap toes will wait until another day.
Excited to check these shoes out. A bit of a wait but quality takes time.
