Nice loafer, got a JM Weston look to me (instead of the Kiton thing someone else was commenting).
^^Unreal.
the reason why the heel on a custom-/handmade shoe is "nicer" than on a machine made.
That is called peening the heel. The leather is dampened and compressed with the peen (end opposite the face); this process helps to meld the different layers of leather in the heel to eliminate any gaps/spaces and also increases the heel's water resistance.
where's the rear seam???
No rear seam as such...it's off to the medial side. See first post and the way the pattern is cut.
Best shown in this photo:
Can you post a close-up of this seam from the stingray shoes? Or again, along the topline and facings? Please.
I'll ask Riccardo to make them. The shoes are still in Italy and I live in Amsterdam
