it's the last that fits him best and fit is paramount... i agree, that the norweger style might be more suitable for the traditional austro-hungarian lasts.

I agree to fit- but, but the styling, as you said, is not as gracious.

Weird - I'm not keen on them from the looking down shot, but rotating the photograph to get an approximation of the face on view I quite like them. Must be something to do with the pronounced asymmetry of the last. Have you got a proper toe-forward shot?

I think I've overcome my aversion to shell, particularly with broguing. I've been well and truly indoctrinated.

I'm still holding out on the hatrred for tassel loafers though

It's nice to see this shoe posted. I have it and wore it earlier in the week. Without a doubt, it's my most comfortable shoe, and I love its color. I'm not crazy about the looks of the sole, but I love the comfort it provides. Enjoy!
