Hi all,
Just thought I'd check the interest on these - originally purchased from Ascot Shoes. Factory Seconds (although I still don't know what the issue was with these), never worn. I love these shoes, but I think the sad reality is that I probably should have picked these up in a 9 UK. I can wear them with thick socks, but think it may just be better if I look to get something that will fit a bit better.

Shoes come with factory second box, no trees, no dust bags. I have RLPL shoe trees that fit these shoes pretty well, and will sell those as well if someone is interested for an additional $80.

I checked the "best offer" option but I'm really not looking to go much lower than that to in order to recoup my cost.

Plenty of pics here:

New Gold Museum is an awesome colour, it really does get better with a combination of wear and good shoe care. I have the Langton in New Gold, a very similar shoe to the City II in fact, and have used solely neutral Saphir Medaille D'Or and Renovateur on them. I personally think they look better now than they did before I'd ever worn them.
