Around $1200-1300. 30% off during its semi-annual sale.

I don't think he knows since he indicated in a previous response that the shoe shop salesman had them installed for him before delivery. In any case, I would love to have some of these!

Here are a pair of thrift store Florsheim spectators I got a week ago.Appear to have been worn once or twice but never polished. Less than $10.00. Part of the Barletta series. Made in in "China. Leather soles and uppers.As you can see, the laces were incorrectly tied at the factory, so I changed them out.Not AE quality but serviceable for a few years with care.

The Florsheims look very nice, albeit a little OTT, with the broad chisel toe. Some real shoe Appreciation:
