[Gdot]

Is it possible that the wife is holding them hostage in an attempt to curtail your out-of-control spending of late?

Remind me what's the difference between regular G&G and Deco again, besides the shape of the last and maybe the leather?

Hand welting is probably the biggest single difference.
I'm sure there are other construction upgrades as well.
Special leather finishes and more finishing in general.

So its hand welted instead of gemmed?

I don't believe they are hand welted, only hand lasted
