First shoe = bespokes
Second shoe = Stefano Bemer mto (not too bad for a handmade shoe, but not as refined and well made as Vass).
Third shoe = Edward Green
Forth shoe = Santoni bentivegna shoes (truely and utterly superb)
Your shoes deserve better treees

Yes they do. l will be getting a bunch of bespoke trees made for my bespoke shoes and l will buy some proper rtw trees soon. It's very hard to find good trees in Australia; l have been looking for good trees for almost 20 years and have only came across some good ones two months ago, so l will stock up. 
That bespoke above is one of the only shoes made from the last of the masters in the last 50 years. You won't see them made like that in Australia ever again. There is a huge story behind that shoe, and it is fully historical. l tried to get him to do a close cut bevelled waist but my cordwainer had never seen it before. My next  bespoke pair will be ready in two weeks. 


Who are you? Why you joy on aus members forum? You'd be a greatly welcome (hope your not already on but I forgot if so.... T_T sorry)

Forget about those. THIS is the best shoe ever presented to an American president.

Can't blame the guy. You can imagine his rage after seeing Bush with those crocs slip ons and socks.

Field research :fonz:

Oh wait, that's a sociology thing

couple alden pickups from the last month


Nice. Always ambivalent about the #8/natural edge combination. To me, it looks great when the #8 is dark but not after it lightens up.
