Kiton shoes: anyone remember?

[skalogre]

I am really hoping someone remembers where these were or still has a picture...
This was pre-crash. The shoes were by Kiton I believe, spectators, dark antiqued brown with antiqued ivory.
Anyone?
Thanks, Stelios.

PM the member Sartoriale -- I think he was the Ebay seller. Maybe he'll have an archived picture.

Ah! I think you are right, I remember some eBay shop having a pic of those. Thanks.

 

[skalogre]

You were right - the pic was on his eBay shop. Thanks again!

I always remember those because I believe they set a record for dress shoes on ebay, they went for like $1700!!!

 

[johnnynorman]

Yes, but with the price of the euro, $1700 American is not really all that expensive, is it?

I know people don't love To Boot, but these evoke those unbelievable Kitons for me:

Not worth the price, in my opinion. Also, unless you have little feet proportional to your body, I think these will look funny.

Hmm, those do look rather long. Not sure...

I love spectators and those rock! Did you get them?
Allen Edmond used to make the Broadstreet in brown /white. There is a pair of dark brown and linen? by Romano Martegani I'm seriously looking at having made.

Those are awfully nice. Mmm. I sort of forgot about them.

I haven't yet, but I'm thinking of doing so if they are part of Neiman's "first call" sales this week.
I like the elongated toe and it would be something different in my collection, so I might get them. Will report back.

Please do, I am curious.

Those kiton specs were one of the most beautiful pairs of shoes i've ever seen.

This reminded me of your selection. I own the lighter brown versions of these. They are by Mezlan, the style is called "Squire". My AE's have a more rounded toe, so this was a nice change. I do alot of walking at my job, these have held up great so far.
