U last, oxblood calf (I think?). I ordered those 6 years ago so I can't say I remember the price back then.

I just don't like that it appears to have been circumcised. I like a taller boot.

Oxblood calf is a shade I swear competes with shell (for me).

Do you think Mr. Rezso checks himself the orders before shipping?. I had to tell him to check my orders personally and have his/my approval (pics in advance) before shipping.

Check out this stitching on my two recent purchases. I assume this is unacceptable since I cannot see any stitching on my other pair of Vass, Carmina or Alden dress shoes.

I had the same issue earlier. The shoes fit great though.

We call that "grinning."

Whatever it's called, it is a poor job and not-so-good that it got by QC. It really needs to be re-done because with stitches that far apart and that loose, it's begging for dirt and moisture to enter in-between the insole and the outsole.
