Is RL still keeping these in stock?

I guess they've stopped serving these with the hinged 888 trees...too bad.

I have seen the black Grant's recently at the new Polo store at the Palazzo Casino in LV.

These have to be one of the best looking shoes on the market. Congrats... Sorry, but I'm biased - I have a pair in brown museum calf...

Sweet. I've decided I vastly prefer the 8000 to the 888.

I like those ,but prefer double monk strap in that slanted style. They look a bit more radical and revolutionary. Viva Che!

UPS does bring good things ,but you should have paid attention when they went IPO in late 90s, that is when they laid a golden egg.
