^^^ Better yet... "free." It's not mine, but it was left in a vacation house in the Berkshires that a friend closed on last week. I spent the weekend up there with him and a couple of other friends snooping through a house full of furniture, clothes, objets d'art, etc. that once belonged to an 88 year old NYC attorney. It was a blast, lol.

Sorry to bump myself on this, but can anyone help a brotha out? I'm truly baffled by this. I've still be searching online and I still can't find any evidence that Lucchese makes honest-to-goodness regular dress shoes. There's this: http://www.lucchesecowboyboots.com/luccheseusa.html but it's only boots and says they're all made in the USA

. My shoes are "hand made in Italy". I thought maybe they're different "Lucchese's", but mine also say "since 1883", just like all these boots. Seems too much of a coincidence to be possible. No clue on this one.

Would love some help with these - Lucchese wingtips. I remember someone mentioning that they make great boots, and their boots seem to fetch a hefty sum, but I seriously can't find any evidence anywhere that they make dress shoes.

. Seriously, all of the results are for boots, boot-like shoes, or a very occasional loafer. Can't find any evidence that they make dress shoes. Too weird. They seem nicely made and have Vibram soles, but otherwise, don't really know what to think of them.

Question:
Thrifted a sweet Zegna navy SC. 3 roll 2, pick stitching, ticket pocket. Has brass buttons with golden fleece BB logos (like the ones above in lookngr8's post) Were the buttons most likely replaced? Or is the golden fleece symbol used by others? Is it exclusively used by BB? Either way this jacket is ****.
