Great news, gentlemen! Just confirmed today that I am a 7.5D in the Barrie! Now it's time to look for some nice shell make-ups!

Good news for you, is that you can hop on any run that I am on, since I usually get the B width added to the three widths they will do on a given run... ;-)

Hi all,

I just got from the phone with Schuh Keller and Kettler schuhe, Schuh Keller has some 975's in Ravello and Cigar NST Blutchers left and Kettler has 3 or 4 Ravello NST blutchers left. Well I guess this was it. I hope I was of some help for those looking for rare shell.

Hi all, the guys at both these shops are super helpful and nice. I can tell they love shoes. Rather than all of us calling- here are some details. I was just thinking from their end - those would help them out a lot - rather than get crazy amounts of calls from all of us!!!

First is the 2222 NST cigar. It is available in size 8 E / 9,5 E / 11,5 E and made on the Aberdeen last.
The other one is the 97504 Long Wing Blucher ravello which is available in size 6,5 E / 7,5 E / 11 E and made on the Barrie last.

They also won't ship to US, FYI. But here's the Ravello CT anyway.

Generally speaking, how does the 'down a half size, up a width' strategy work out with Aldens?

I thought I wasn't into moc toes like the Indy or NST/Tankers. I was like "oh, I'm so relieved the latest Cigar and Whiskey boot releases have been Indys and Tankers." Then the last few pages of this thread happened. I love-hate you all!

Today: Ravello NST boot on Aberdeen from TSM
