Ah, but I said "from that height," meaning from a satellite's point of vew no one could tell the difference. And I said "Payless" because they're all on display on racks (I imagine), like at Payless.

Have tried on the very same, but the store only had EE models ... And I really want the light tan bufalo version, apparently not as easy to find. So Im stil looking, but considdering a F-lasted MTO. VASS shoes are REALY growing on me.

I agree. Have looked at the Southwould a couple of times but find it a bit on the "dandy" side ... Your thoughts? I did think so of the Eg Oundle to, but they have grown on me.
