Would be surprised if they made an 11D, they rarely make large sizes anymore. Possible they made a 10.5D.

Got it - thanks Jeff ?

Has anyone on here ever put sole protectors on the leather tips on a pair of Alden crepe soles? I wanted to know if there were any negatives to doing this. I do understand that the crepe heels would wear quite a bit faster than the leather tips with a sole protector, but it's fairly straightforward to get just the crepe heels replaced. The leather tips make me avoid wearing them in the rain. I have no issue wearing leather soled shoes with sole protectors on wet days. I realize this is probably a "me" hangup and not an actual functional one.

Leather Soul Ravello Shortwings - possibly the best shade of "Orangevello" ever? If anyone has a bead on their Amaretto Shortwings in 10.5 or 11D, then please let me know ? View attachment 1540743

Mark, those Ravello SWs are looking just superb. Such a nice and rich color with almost an Amaretto vibe to them. Enjoy them in good health!

Three weeks. ;-)

I always start the year with a “Ravello Week”, been doing this the past 4-5 years. Today was actually my last day, as I have now worn every pair that I have in Ravello. Tomorrow will be my new (to me) Color 4 Vibergs.

Cheers,
Mike

Happy Friday forum pals. I have enough Ravello to wear them one day in a row.
