Hi everyone,
I picked up a pair of Dack's brown leaf Turners yesterday... they are lovely shoes (made by Church's I believe). On sale for $285 CDN (normally $475). I had actually been eyeing these for some time, but couldn't pull the trigger at the original price. I ended up buying a pair of Paul Smith Nash on sale last weekend (my first pair of higher end shoes) to fill the need, although the PS are far more casual, only to find these on sale a mere 7 days later. Well, needless to say I couldn't pass them up. That will be it for a long, long while!
Now, on to the question. On one of the shoes the leather on centre peak of the "W" (pardon me if I don't know the correct terminology) isn't really "trim," for lack of a better word. As you can see in the pictures, there is a small flap of leather at the peak of the brogueing, whereas there is no such excess leather on the other shoe. Is this normal? If not, is it something that a shoemaker could fix, or should I just return them for another pair?
Thanks, and I appreciate your help!
