That color is amazingly beautiful!!!

On a slightly related note, does anyone know on what medium I can watch the documentary “Handmade: By Royal Appointment - John Lobb Shoes”?
I am sure it’s about JL London, but anything about making handmade and bespoke shoes is of high interest to me.

Someone told me it was on Netflix, but I couldn’t find it there. If anyone knows, I bet others want to see it too.
thanks


You can see it on Youtube:

Gorgeous!! FedEx is literally deliver mine now - dark brown.
I bought them purposely/accidentally though. I guess my card was already in from a previous purchase. I was checking the tax vs. picking them up in NYC vs overnight delivery. The button was misleading as it read “Proceed to Cart”. But when I pressed it, the next window was “Thank You for Your Purchase”. When your item ships, you’ll receive....”
I was like, oh ****, gotta hide this one from the wifey. Too many boxes have bees showing up with my name of them lately. One more box might raise some questions about a new kitchen or something.
Congrats! the brown would have been my second choice!
Share pics of the shoes! :slayer:

Share pics of the shoes! :slayer:
I love the shoe, although the navy may be more versatile...but hey no shoe polish, shoe horn, or extra shoe strings, all of which I thought I got with my Becketts - which I got directly from the NY shop. The last is 0118 and is a bit roomier in the toe box, but narrower in the heel than the 8000. Sorry ‘bout the dup pics.
