I was surprised you went Barrie size; my TTS plaza is about as small as I’d go unless it’s the wholecut loafers Yenni did.

Guess it depends on the style for me. My foot is somewhere between a 9C/9D so the ball width was fine in these. However, the boots I have in 9D on Plaza both seem to be very wide (wider than Barrie) and probably could have used an 8.5D. I'll have to try on an 8.5D Plaza boot and that will help me dial in whether I take Brannock or Barrie size on Plaza.

Good Morning Gentlemen,

Fresh from the delivery drop, I have a Ravello Shell Cordovan Jumper Boot with Brass Hardware. An exquisite shade of Ravello! Have a great Tuesday.

Compared to my older Ravello Jumpers.

Unlined loafers.........yet again

Whiskey Unlined C&J's

Really going off the rails here but we had a 90 degree day in the Burg and the beauty of working for a company that has yet to require us to return to the office is that there are very few people in the building. I took advantage of that and decided to grab my laptop and work at the Point (downtown park where Pittsburgh's 3 rivers converge). This is what work looks like these days......

Lastly, the beauty of unlined is how seamlessly they transition from socks to sockless. PM shot as the temperature continued to rise.......

Pretty lousy pic but you get the idea
