JL Adelaide Philip or Langton?

[vogda]

I'm in to the Hi-end shes from a short time and I think I burned the halts
I was soon impressed and fascinated about the history and the prestige of John Lobb and definetly love them classic style
So in one of my last trip to London I have been to visit them Cathedral in ST.JAmes and buy the Fardorn at JL in Jermyn street( also a SPRINT II in another trip )
So I realized that before to arrive to purhase a JL some experience and knowledge is required (Starting fom the top ' now can only go down )
So now saving some money (as I'm not kitonbrioni unfortnlly) I can't wait to go back and buy beetween Adelaide (black even if i like the Ardilla but probably difficult for me i mean to match )Philip or Langton in black (tried in pewter museum gorgeous)What I want at the end is a classic stylish and an important confortable shoe
Any suggestion or comparision ?
Love also EG ST Crispin and Kiton

My shoes are
C&J HG Boswel


Alden Blucher


JL Farndorn



JL Sprint II Relaxed Oxford Casual



Its Time for an Italian ?

I will.
Better original shoe trees or it doesn't matter ?
I'm confused about standard shoetrees as they have size M L or S
FOR a 7 1/2 E Medium it should be okay ?
No suggestions for my JL post?
Thanx

I have the Adelaide in Ardilla and I love them. I imagine they would look good in black also, but I simply never get excited about black shoes.

You are right Let me explain then

I leave in Italy in one of the most beautiful place in the world I'm 100% Italian(born n the States NY and back to ITALy at the age of 1 year old Thats why my english is bad)with dual citizen ship ITA -American
So i was saying I LEAVE in a fantastic and quiet place that is a bit far away from cities where I can go shopping , and more I do a job (own and manage an Hotel and Bar )that when you are in Holidays I work so in some way for me is more easy sit in front the pc and shop
To be honest I'm an hour drivng away from Naples (So Kiton Borrelli Isaia etc)
The fact is that I'm in to the SHOES at the moment and interested more in the Bolognese and Milanese Shoes So that requires lots of travel time and more My girlfriend she is english and leave in London so
for mein some way is easyer to purchase a JL then Italian shoes
Tell me if it makes sense for you

Not really.

Once in a while, I had an italian girlfriend. She was sort of embarassed, when I got my Hungarian shoes. Being in Paris, she didn't even notice JL.

But to be honest. I am not too familiar whith RTW, because this shoes do not have a soul, which is very important.

Besides most of the English, French and Italian styles are not my cup of tea. Nice to watch on the shelves, but...
