Good catch. The front of the boot looked like the plaza, but you seem to be correct.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks all...I'm very happy to have them.

The J Crew Men's stores in New York sell a suede boot similar to ssync's boots. The main difference is J Crew's versions are on the crepe sole with the leather toe (same as the all weather walker and the context roy boots). I've been eyeing them as a three season (spring, fall, winter) complement to suede chukka boots. Not sure what last they are on.

I saw them as well and think they look great. I imagine they are on the Barrie or TruBalance.

Just got these from Tom at LS (great service as usual) Sorry about the poor quality picture. The only digital camera I have is my BB.

Yep. I am lusting after these. Hopefully I'll be able to get a pair eventually (still waiting on my 403s from Leffot, which have been five months in the making now).

^^Wow, the V-tip really makes the Barrie look a lot more sleek. Great shoes.

cigar ages really nicely. i wore my ravello lwb out tonight and its starting to crease already looking nice. i thought i was going to hate the crepe soles with leather toe patch its actually surprisingly nice.
