Another run of the ravello LWB? Do you know how soon? May have to call her back tomorrow. Not good......

Not sure how far out, but it's definitely not confirmed. I didn't want to inquire too much since she was conversing with a fellow who slipped through the cracks on the last run and missed out on the shoe... The shell game can be rough sometimes.

sorry, file size too lrge to upload to styleforum, but too small for imgur and styleforum to expand on :/

I'd be happy to forward as email if you want to PM me. I only have the 11.5D list (from the ones you asked about)

Obviously the reason the seconds list is lacking is because Alden sends everything made out as firsts

I laughed out loud at that one. You should have seen my wife's face when she asked what was so funny and I said..."shoe joke". Haha

What is the difference between these soles? Is one better than the other?

Watching The latest episode of Mythbusters with the wife. It was a pleasant surprise to spot a well worn pair of Indy boots being worn by Tory to test a myth on how to repel snakes (he was was loosely dressed like Indiana Jones).

Wow, Texas BBQ in downtown DC... pretty cool, but I prefer pork BBQ from VA/NC or TN.

One is light and one is dark. The light one may be a "double waterlock" sole which will be a bit softer and more water repellent. Other than that no real functional difference. Buy what you like. Dark is more versatile

Both are double leather soles but one has light antique edge (with possible double waterlock sole) the other dark/black edge.

I also received the seconds list this afternoon. I recognize that I'm a little late posting about it, but I did not realize that I was supposed to announce it on the thread.

From now on I will disclose promptly upon receipt.

The Shoe Mart changed their systems. I was having the same problem for probably a year. It took a few calls, but they were able to work through my account issues. Again, the people at The Shoe Mart are fantastic, so be patient, as it took a few times for them to work out the kinks. Just keep asking them to send you the most recent list every time they make a tweak to your account and phone back if you do not receive the message within 24 hours.
