Unfortunately these don't belong to me.

From the new AS Handgrade line, style called Keats. The colour is chestnut with burnishing in the throat and on the heel & toe area. Fiddleback waist is standard on this range.

For more updates Chay has a blog http://alfred-sargent.blogspot.com/p/home.html

A few pictures and some close up shots:

For one day that wear pattern is a bit of a worry especially the way you are leaning out IMO. I suggest you should see a foot clinic re that.

Oh hell no! Maybe Pengranger since he has experience with the Factory Shop, even though he already has his pair. Or any of the UK guys who'd do the proxy if it turns into that. Anyone seen Grimslade?

Thanks! I've had a lot of practice, but in the end, I'll credit the Saphir cream and wax I've started using as well as the calfskin which takes a good shine. I've got 2 coats of wax all over on these, plus the mirror shine on the caps and rear quarters.
