I picked three styles of Vass to order this weekend, but after doing a bunch of research and looking in my closet I decided to change direction. This would be my first pair of Vass, my rotation currently includes all EG in 888, 82 and 606 lasts and JL in the 8000 last. I was thinking about the Vass U last, but the reading that I did said that low arches, flat feet were very hard to fit, so I have decided on the Vass F last.
So, my thinking was to design a saddle shoe, an oxford saddle. I don't own a saddle and I figured that I could wear these with jeans, khakis, etc...
Here is what I came up with:
Option 1: Vass Italian Oxford, F last, Brown boxcalf Italian Polish with a brown suede saddle part, single sole
Option 2: Vass Italian Oxford, F last, Oxblood boxcalf Italian Polish with a black suede saddle part, single sole
Option 3: Vass Italian Oxford, F last, Burgundy cordovan with black cordovan saddle, double sole, tapering to a single sole.
Thoughts? Suggestions? A saddle in scotchgrain? Any help would be appreciated.
