Did somebody call for patinated Chinese shoes?

Subtle like a punch in the stomach. I have my share of classic stuff. It is fun to branch out.

Apparently, Bcoll does not have that many shoes. Come on man, museum red is there for the taking.

Those are subtle. @BColl_Has_Too_Many_Shoes will just think they’re tan.
I think those are red. Although, my confidence in differentiating reds was shattered yesterday when I thought a Color 8 shoe was actually museum red. ??‍♂️??‍♂️

I meant the molting. For our resident color blind guy the museum is more subtle than a lot of museum. Works well.

It is a cloudy patina, not a museum calf per se. I do agree it works well but unfortunately, the fit is far from what I had in mind when I commissioned it. Alas, such is life.

Branching out for me means a Color 8.
I'm not opposed to a key fob in museum red.
