cant see the photos as my work blocks photobucket, but if they are crooked and uneven, yes, return them.
Zing!
I think you'all are nuts - looks like shark which is so tough it is almost impossible to stitch a curve without a little deflection - and the soles look great......closed channel.
I agree with Rider, the shoes look to me like "˜new-old-stock' made of sharkskin (probably from the 1960s). Shark and stingray are notoriously difficult to stitch and the manufacturer has made it particular difficult by placing four parallel rows; (where one would have sufficed to provide the necessary strength).

I don't think they are shark. I've worked with shark a fair bit making boots. Doesn't look like any shark I ever saw.
Seal, shark....looks the same - either way hard as hell. I still have some shark left in the factory from a project.
Ron, what animal is the blue leather in the upper right? Is is just grained calf? Or something else?
Don't know about the cap idea.....I used some of the shark as saddles on a Bordo/Black Saddle sample - nobody really picked up on it.
