Dear kopping Internet Koppers,
After falling in love with Pierre Corthay's beautiful shoes in his workshop off of place Vendôme two summers ago, I bought this beautiful pair of black Arcas from Malford of London. Unfortunately, they are too narrow for me, but here are a few parting shots before I put them up for sale on B&S. Ah, mes anges! They are clearly the most beautiful RTW pair of shoes I've ever had!

Size?

Wholecuts have no seems until you get to the heel. Arcas have a seem as seen in the below image:

^ Dear NOBD,
Brilliant taste in music! There is a class of excellent old French cello masters who played the Dvorak with such clarity, restrained vigour, subtle lyricism; of those, I like Fournier the best.

Loro Piana "Giacca Cordoba" in cashmere / goat hair.

Perfect muted pattern to add some loud colour underneath in a jumper, as long as it were grounded by darker trousers.

 

[Jamesgatz]

My thinking exactly. It's a bit less trim than most Italian jackets in sz 50, roomy enough for a cashmere sweater underneath.
