Moreover, they say it's a wing-tip.. which .. it isn't. For shame, Neimans.

At least they did not call it an Oxford.

The medallion is only half done, it looks like the guy who was punching accidentally tossed into the done pile.

Btw, if memory serves me correct, these shoes are probably made in India. The better pieces by C and J, dont have the embossed sole.

Yes those shoes are "handmade" in India. I've tried them on, they're pretty damn cool.

So they're really half-brogued that way? I thought maybe it was a doctored photo...
