I don't think the ad copy here is correct. Take a look at the shoe and the relationship between the uppers and the sole. I'm about 99% sure (metaphysical certainty freaks me out) that those are either blake or Goodyear welted.

If they are cemented, which I doubt, I'll not step foot into a Paul Stuart shop ever again.

Any idea on how each specific last they are?

This one is 330 last

IIRC 348 < 240 < 330 in wideness.

yup, you can just read the image, and you can always email Paul Stuart customer service, they're always willing to disclose.

I would think these are Paolo Scafora as well, thus GYW, though someone has to email Paul Stuart to confirm... (also which last)

And it seems a 270 degree welt to me if it's not cemented, can't see any threads around the heel area.

I remember someone email them about this expensive wholecut cement, forget how they replied.

Sorry for reviving this thread, but this pair seems to be made by Silvano Lattanzi.

The shape of the last does look like Lattanzi, so it's almost certainly not blake stiched.

Did you email them? pS are usually happy to confirm

I would say it is probably Norvegese welted, I would email them for last and welt information.

Anyway the upper style is ... weird.

They never replied my email, but it looks like 270 degree Norvegese welted. The nail pattern is very similar to S&L.

I know it's kind of gauche to ask about construction methods among this group, but are Lattanzis handwelted or GYW? Their website suggests that they do HW but it's...not super detailed.

 

[Kalec]

Update: they told me that it is NOT made by S&L and it is indeed blake construction.

 

[clee1982]

maybe it's Paolo Scafora? Paolo Scafora can do blake/gyw/hw but of course all different place, and within gyw it can finish to different tier so again different price...

 

[compuccesory]

It's nice looking anyway, I might just give it a try regardless if it isn't final sale.

I have a pair of PS that were made by Martegani.

That's interesting, there's this C&J Hand grade no-lace, it's an interesting look and they have my size too

THe description says blake, but based on MSRP that's got to be one of their higher end lines, Paolo Scafora as you said, and that's a pretty remarkable amount of sewn detail for a blake rapid shoe. I wonder if the description is correct.

Well that's just what they have in my size, some of the deals seem solid but it's tough to justify $300 for a GYW shoe when you can get handwelt Meermin for that much.

Not to revive a thread, but for collective record... I checked with Paul Stuart on the Madrid... Made by Martegani with Blake construction.
