Hi StyleForvm members...

Earlier I posted about custom made shoes from a maker here in China that I worked with. They offer Shell Cordovan as well and I just got my own personal order in to show you guys. Pictures attached and at the end of this post.

Size/Style: The shoes are made to order based on your measurements, and all of their shoes are leather soled, Goodyear welted. Any style basically is doable, for the shoes below I gave them pictures of Alden longwings and they copied it quite closely. They have some common last styles, e.g. round, chiseled, pointed, just ask and I'll try to get a pic of a pre-made shoe in the last style.

Style of the upper can be anything pretty much... oxford, derby, captoe, wingtip, longwing, monkstraps, double monks, etc.


Material: Japanese shell cordovan

Shipping: $315 covers shipping! I will ship with Registered Airmail, and it takes on average 15 - 20 days. This is on top of approx 1.5 weeks it takes them to make the shoes, so please understand that it will be about 1 to 1.5 months before you receive them.

Payment: PayPal to [email protected]. Personal payment would be greatly appreciated, but otherwise I can send you an invoice as well.

Pics:
I just got the shell cordovan shoes I ordered from these guys and looks quite nice, in a very dark burgundy color. Photos without flash shows the color a bit better, and the photos with flash show the handiwork a bit better.
