I originally preferred the LHS, and gave a pair of whiskey ones over year before acknowledging that the Van last is just miserable. I still like the way they look but prefer the C&J for RL full strap loafer.

^ 100% agree. That C&J loafer is the best looking shell loafer, imo

Beautiful makeup. 337 is a superior last in both fit and appearance

Speaking of Crockett & Jones, here's the Seymour for Frans Boone. My first pair on the 337 last - I dig it.


Love those but no have de money.

i disagree. full strap looks old manish to me. maybe its because my boss wears a pair.


The very low vamp (or lake depending on to whom you are speaking) is what kills it for me. No offense Spoo, and I'm sure you'll make these shoes look great. IMHO a higher vamp on loafers looks nicer.

Quick n dirty iPhone shot of a new steez for me - Alden shell full strap. Thanks to the dudes on the Alden SWD thread for some tips!

Congrats Spoo! For some reason I thought you more of an Aberdeen last guy :D
