The Ultimate Vass (Footwear) Thread (Pictures, reviews, sizing, etc...)

@hoodog this was a MTO make up. I specified punched captoe Adelaide and Vass did the rest.

Ok. Great looking shoe. This one goes on my watch list.

Yep @j ingevaldsson is spot on. I did spend some time trawling through the Vass website looking at the patterns, and if they did make that pattern or similar, The Vcap is more a traditional vass design from what i have seen. It is fair to say the images are nowhere near as inspiring as IRL photos. Original inspiration came from G&G St James II.

Ok, so you only said that you wanted a "punched toe cap adelaide" and then Vass took care of the rest? You didn't send them pics of other shoes or of the heel counter?

By the way, could I trouble you to post a pic of the heel counters?

So I have an order I placed back in February for gold museum calf that hasn't even shipped yet. I don't even know if I want it anymore either.

Anyway, the order i placed with arahat back in the beginning of June is ready. How does that make sense lol.

So excited, just waiting on the other shell pair before shipping... Looks killer.

Color on the wingtips is sublime. Perfect IMO. I don't know why vass made mine so dark. Remind me more of cigar.

Anywho congrats!

Yeah, great price but might need to hold out and get a similar wingtip.

"Antique cognac shell" budapester boot

Very nice - definitely doesn't look too elongated at that angle. I guess they are on the dark side but nothing to sneeze at.
