The true color of this run is actually more on the brownish side.

Hook me up with travel to your store and a pair of ravello short wings when you get them in, and I will do some product photos for you, and teach you how to do it for the future.

I am dead serious here. I am a working photographer, I don't want to flaunt my work on here, but PM me and I can show you it.

Beauties Tom. Any special treatment for the shoe shine?

Are the Chromexcel NST's you mentioned being at the trunk shoe the ones from your pre-order #16?

Tom - put a commando sole on those chromexcel chukkas and you have the perfect winter boot. I'll take a 9 B/D.

I'm not sure what Tom uses, but i use Venetian Shoe Cream on all of my Chromexcel shoes/boots. People will say and use may different things but i have found that this works best. It gives the leather a nice dull lustre, perfect for Chromexcel.

I have found that most Cigar comes on the antique edge trim. My long wings have it anyway...
