The 'soldes' were on, but alas, the following pair was not on that list. C'est triste.

Excuse my ignorance but does Carmina do spectators with shell? Not sure if those are but was wondering if they do that . . .

They will do it via MTO at any of their stores.

These are not shell, but I believe they will make them up for you through MTO [Pictured are Ethandesu's Cordovan / Suede Saddle Specs]:

Loving those suede / saddle specs ^^ Been looking for some lasts with a wider toe box and found these which fit the bill... Some Zegna XXX's in dark brown
