I understand that posts from "professionals", as far as they concern nice shoes, are appreciated on this forum. I therefore attach two photos (of terrible quality but I had a hard time in making them "light" enough to be posted) of two MTO shoes of ours which in my opinion are worth posting: the monk shoe because it is made in a very rare col. 4 Shell Cordovan and the Oxford beacause it came out in a deep burgundy which I personally love (and which is much nicer in the flesh than in photo). Hope you like them also.

Thank you all for the kind and much appreciated comments.

KPP, you find hereinbelow some photos which show the sole and the waist finish of the captoe. As to the sole the finish is the traditional plain finish used many years ago on Italian bespoke shoes. We can easily make it a bit fancier (an antiqued bicolor, by way of example).
