I actually can't criticize as I think about shoes that I've had for a year or more and have yet to wear. My goal this year is to put everything into my rotation.

I would never be able to do this. I am like a little kid when if comes to new things - I must immediately open, try on, wear, etc., any new item I purchase.

How do you have the restraint?

forex, no, not only cordovan shoes, also calfskin shoes.
as soon as possible i'll post some other pics...

From what I've read from you, that may be a tall order. You must have quite the collection.

Just upped my collection by one -

I was a little hesitant about getting a second pair of PTBs, but they look great and I don't at all regret my decision.

Great looking shoes. I've never heard of this shoe company. Beautiful nevertheless.

Enjoy your shoes.

Lufty, these shoes look terrific. The shape is nicer than Alden's Barrie last, IMO, and the color is nice and rich. Great find.
