Hello fellows, I have a brand new Kiton 8.5 sized Antique brown captoe bal.
It is brand new but a little shop worn, some few customer tryons.
for most it not bad at all, just to warn the meticulous.
for bals i usually go by the stiffness of the tongue and heel, if the tongue flops somewhat and the heel is a little soft i know how aggressively theyve been tried on.
this the tongues are stiff and upright and the heels hard. so whoever tried them on were gentlemen.
I'll get you pics later tonite.
Comes with lasted shoe trees and bag and box all original.
changed : $999 + shipping (as is what I paid for)
thanks.

8.5 kiton size , as many of you already know they run big. these fit me as i am a 9.5-10D. US

Kiton really need to be seen in person to be appreciated, in pics they seem like ok shoes but you need to feel and smell the leather on them. The construction is wonderful, the leather has a "soul" to it that I have not seen on other shoes and they seem like th etype of shoes that only get better with age.

Yikes! I am a 9.5 too and those are stunning shoes. It's settled then, I am buying a lottery ticket tomorrow and buying these for sure if I win. Wish me luck! I'll keep you posted but in case I don't win, I sure hope someone here will have the sense to buy these beautiful shoes.

EL, i hope you pick the right numbers. maybe some of these numbers may work: 33788811057000


edit:

boy, who am i kidding. i feel like a jerk. i will not do a profit on my style friends. only a small finder fee whenever appropriate

Here, i am selling these for 999 dollars. plus whatevers shipping. i ll show you my receipt. bought out of state so i did not pay tax.

i got them at bergdorf but before i return them will offer them up to anyone here .

i heard there are no more 999 kitons anymore. i dont know what might happen when i return them, they may raise the price . or just lose them in circulation.

i m not going to put these on ebay. too risky for me with hell paypal and ebay.

Amen, brother
Ever since they've set up an in-house operation the Kiton shoes have been obscene. Top-notch, rare, expensive stuff that most certainly looks the part.
Dude, why would you want to sell them

another thing if you purchase, you can return to bergdorf in ny yourself, i cannot give you my receipt but just a photocopy. (i need the original myself of course)
i dont know if they can give you a cash refund, as i purchased with my cc. they may give you a store credit instead or gift cert.

they were purchased for $999

buyer will just pay shipping to themselves.

another thing to mention. sorry no paypal. you know why right? i want a full refund i send back myself.
only check or money order or cashier check.
no problems you can trust me.
i have references here.

reason two fold:
1 i am extremely picky and it has like i mention above a little shopworn. nothing wrong as you can see in the pics and for most that is negligible. im just picky real picky.

2 i asked for the wholecut whisky punched captoe . he said these were the whisky punched captoe. i opened the box and i get these captoes.
beautiful, but not what i wanted.
