not at all. jm seems to be unaware of bill's love for viennese products. right out of my head: crystal glasses - j. & l. lobmeyr suits & formal wear - knize not confirmed yet. accessories - jungmann&neffe bed linen - schwäbische jungfrau etc.

Ron Rider showed a pair of green shell cordovan shoes at the Ask Andy sartorial excellence thing in 2007. There are pics here. I'm not a fan of green shoes, but those were gorgeous. I'm sure he or Alfred Sargent could make you a pair.

^ The ones from Bespoke England are probably going to be it. The Grants are in my shopping cart as we speak. I sent Nick a PM with a query, but no reply as yet.

What last are those puppies on top there built on, do you know?
