I know what you mean. It's a phase I'm going through. I wanted to see how far I could go with the rougher yearling leather,

I just entered the world of hand made dress shoes thanks to a wedding present from my lovely fiancee. It's an outdoor wedding in San Diego, and I'll be wearing a light gray worsted suit--pictures will follow after it's made, first fitting in about four weeks.

Just back from the new C&J store in NYC, and I came away a pair of Brunswicks in dark brown antique calf. They're on the 358 last.
