Took my #8 PTBs out to the butcher this afternoon in search of beef for braciole.

^ Hope your braciola turns out as well as your color 8s look. Those are excellent. How long have you had them?

According to the model number it's whiskey.

old whiskey? ravello?

I can confirm they are Whiskey. After seeing them in person, I wouldn't necessarily agree with their condition rating. I've seen worse, but I would say they look like they have at least a couple of dozen wears on them.

Nice deal, $225 buy it now, on a pair of Winn Perry Longwings - size 10D (ebay) Not mine. I have a pair and would recommend.

Is this a new sole that alden is starting to use (i've only seen the darker plantation crepe with the leather toe) ?

I think these look awesome, but the price is full marsupial.

Thank you. These are about five years old, but I've worn them pretty lightly on the whole. I've decided I need to put a few more miles on them.

Paulina?

Minelli's. It's where the wife's people have gone historically. Looked up Paulina, though, and I will have to visit.

, indeed. This is $1,000 for suede Aldens? Barney's must have bought the rumor on the price increase.

wondering the same thing. 9B/D?
agreed they look really brown. probably the lighting

 

[LeatherSOUL]

Those $1000 Aldens are probably Brunello Cucinelli.
