The model is 907. I think Carmina names all their models by number.

Carmina is a machine made shoe. Rain last is an excellent, easy to fit, chisel toe last IMHO.

Their shop in Paris. I was there in late April. Met the shop manager Luis Cepeda. Great guy.

I wasn't planning to buy any more semi-brogue as I have a few pairs already. But when I spotted that tan pair in the window, I said to myself that this would be ANOTHER pair.
