Having a 4 day work week makes every Thursday a Friday for me, so I didn’t even blink.
Since the pandemic and vacation reserve hitting the limit I haven’t worked but a handful of fridays in the past couple years.

m Yenni (always just so cool to deal with). The mod on the Brassvello's we're done by Bedo's and while I've only had a couple of mod's done by him, he is really good. Just so happens he made a video of the work on these and I learned quite a bit (as well as gaining additional appreciation for what goes into making welted footwear). Well, enough

Shawn, those new to you, Brassvello Gunboats are looking just exquisite! Awesome to have the video that goes with it to complete the story. Looking great in them!


I got my first pair of new Aldens today. I have yet to try them on yet, but here’s to hoping the size/last works for me.

Dash, those Suedes are looking simply marvelous as only Mack could do! Enjoy them in good health!



Jeff, those just look flat out sharp. Looking great and thanks for the inspiration to take mine out someday!!!



Shawn, happy Friday now! Those Ravello Tassels are just money and they look just superb on you!


A break in the monsoon brought the first clear morning in days; Ravello Daytrippers from AoDC in the sun…

CoolHand, those are just phenomenal. A truly great and simple design paired with the majestic Ravello. Enjoy them today!!!

PSA, if you are in the approximate 8-9 (D or E) range, Alden DC had a bunch of "I don't need them anymore" on their recent Ravello Daytripper run if anyone is looking to get them. Just thought that I would share! They also had a few pairs of their Cigar Shell Semi-Brogue Balmoral.

Have a great one,
Mike

Always enjoy reading your words of encouragement Mr. Mayor. Almost as much as I enjoy your write-ups on AoSD. Anxiously awaiting the write-up on those 'Brassvello' Perf Cap's you scored from Yenni :cool: !

Appreciate the heads-up. Since I've been in this game, I have been a firm believer in the old adage that there is no such thing as too much Ravello. However, I may have finally reached the tipping point. After much consternation, I decided not to torment myself by calling.

I inquired last month to check on the next batch of these. How's the shade of ravello on these if you happen to know? I saw a recent ravello that looked like cigar.
