So I ordered a pair of Shell Semi-Brogues from Tom at LeatherSoul last week. This is my first pair of shell so far. Below is the link to the shoe...

Some of you might remember that I tracked down a pair of the Alden longwings from the Black Fleece line. They haven't even gotten to California yet, let alone to me! I digress..... I got home and my Semi's were here.

I am now completely and totally hooked on shell!!!! It's like seeing an old friend! My God! They are amazing. Tom and LeatherSoul really got a design and a half here! So thanks to all the members raving about shell for turning me on to shell, and a BIG thanks to Tom and LeatherSoul for a beautiful pair of shoes and outstanding customer service.

Forex,

I'm happy because I love them, I do wish I could have been smitten with a cheaper material!
