I don't mind at all... I prefer the way the top of the heel was finished before - as per my Cannes in the grain leather. I think the "dog tail" is now the standard (unles sthere is a heel conunter). I guess the dog tail is a faster way to finish that area. J

It's always fun to save and anticipate though.

Can't wait to see your new G&Gs though. Can we get a hint on what you're expecting?

We're also waiting for some Canterburys, I'm guessing we were on the same line. Hopefully UPS will get them here on Wednesday. Will post pics as soon as I get them. But for now:

Have you had anyone make up the Gable on the DG70 or GG606?
