Another question for my fellow forum members.

My calf LHS always had this weird wrinkles right above the heel, ever since I got them a few years ago. On both pairs, on the inside part. I have used them, polished regularly and kept them with shoe trees on. Nothing seems to do much for these wrinkles. The photo was taken after a polishing session with Renovateur + Creme 1925.

Any ideas? Product build up maybe? Or just normal? I'm thinking this was caused when these shoes were made, from the way the upper was stretched over the last... but just my uneducated guess.

Color 8 with a splash of green for St Patrick’s Day 🍀 (inspired by all of the recent LHS talk)

Crosspost from the Alden B/S/T thread:

Hi all,

I know it’s a longshot … but I’m looking for some of the Alden (or C&J) makeups for the Brooks Brothers Black Fleece (BBBF) line in US 11D from back around 2008-2012. Send me a pm!

Thanks, AHS

The spell of dry weather in Seattle has allowed me to break out some of my leather-soled pairs. Hand-sewn goodness!

Nice color on those. One more example of why eight is great.
