First Vass via NMWA...

No spoiler, they are great.

Thanks. U last half size up is working out very well for me. Narrower last can be tricky on my feet, so nice surprise.

 

[justsayno]

is it me, but do your Vass shoe boxes smell a bit funky?

HAHA yes. Thank god i am using the glenkaren shoe care stuff so now my shoes smell like oranges

 

[venividivicibj]

Beauties.

Fantastic model

Thanks Vravio yes the instep is high and there's some extra room up in there. May try tongue pads (but thanks for the warning as I have vass trees)

Choose the pads over trees, they will make the pair much more comfortable and there's plenty of trees with a better shape for the pads to be found.

^^^ I believe NMWA posts measurements for their stock shoes.

Thanks, I already found this. I still need some feedback for 42 and 42,5 U Last for the length of the sole. I got a new pair and it is a little bit out of the range of tolerance. Just want to compare it with you guys.

Regards

42.5 U last: length 12 inches exactly. Width at widest point 4.25 inches. Hope this helps

Some of the delivered orders in the AusxSing Vass group buy. More in the thread.

Am also cooking up some ideas for the next group buy (open to all). Sample shoes/boots will be ready in a month or 2.

May I ask what leather & color was used for the shoe on the right (1st pic), and same question for the chukka boot. Are those shell cordovans? If so, which color?

Many thanks

Love Vass Cordovan. My most comfortable shoe, with some patina developing. Whiskey really changes in color over time, with a transitional color pattern emerging as of late.
- 43, U Last, Budapest Model, Horween Whiskey Shell, Natural Single Sole.

That's really beautiful sestyle!!! Was the color really light when you first got it? How long have you been wearing them? That color looks more like saddle rather than whiskey now based on your picture!
