Yes. Very unique shade no doubt.

Thanks man. Love the shoes but this particular pair is very susceptible to water spots/little bumps. Probably worse than any other pair of Horween cordovan shoes I have. Boning/conditioning/brushing makes them smooth and look good but the water spots/little bumps come right back after a couple wears even when there's no rain.

Ok guys. What do you think of these? Are they worth $611?

They are seconds, a few wrinkles and maybe a eyelet off center...but overall pretty good. MSRP $750 but you can get a pair of 1st Quality for $691 when on sale. Would you keep these or get a 1st quality pair?

Second question. What do you think of these 2nd quality Allen Edmonds Cambridge? Would you keep them or return them?

Those look pretty good, just a little rough finishing. The color difference is a matter of personal taste, but they should even up once you take off some of the excess factory polish, or add some burgundy cream to both.
