    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    I don't want to start up a debate but a friendly pros/cons list---what is the big attraction to EG calf shoes as opposed to a pair of cordovan shoes from Alden/CJ? I actually own about a dozen or so cordovan shoes but no calf-skin shoes at all (started my shoe wardrobe with the big cordovan...

    Crockett & Jones for Ralph Lauren Cordovan (Marlow, Darlton, Gifford, Garran, Lindrick, McCallum, Rh

    My recommendation is 8D. I sized my tassels and wingtips the same (half size down from brannock). Of course YMMV

    I know this may sound egregious, but color #8 does not work for my needs, and is the least versatile color for me. I just get too self-conscious in them because almost no one my age wears that color. I can see them being the ultimate versatile pair in an office setting, but no so much in a...

    @mdubs . Wow. You are a winner! How the heck did you score the ravello pt boots as seconds?! You paid a third of what everyone else had to pay! lucky lucky Mike.

    Alden Cigar LWB - 8.5D Barrie - Custom Work

    Can you post some shots of those in natural light? I'm curious to see how they look outdoors.

    Hope to bump into you somewhere in Philly. I have yet to come across a fellow alden/shell cordovan fan. Would be great to spot some ravello wt boots out in the wild.

    Sorry. One more of these hypothetical questions: cigar or ravello captoe boot? I am on the ravello captoe boot list but also have a shot at the cigars. Might have to choose only one. Never seen either in person so for those who have either one, can you chime in on which you prefer?

    Ok thanks for unwittingly talking me out of another alden purchase. Was really tempted to purchase the WT boot but I would have had to make the decision between these and my newly acquired AoC ravello lwb. Or I would have received the wtboot, instantly fallen in love, made the irrational...

    What are your guys' views on ravello lwb vs ravello wt boot? If you had to pick one, which would it be?

    Quote: Darn. Closest size is half size too big. A couple popular sizes though!

    You may be the victim, but how naive are you? I go through every item I buy on ebay with a fine comb. Saying that you don't have enough time is BS in my honest opinion. Examining the shoes take 10-15 mins tops? Dropping off shoes and picking them up from the cobbler probably took longer than...

    Nice boots!! I can see that you love captoe boots!

    Why don't you call and ask for a small discount. Doesn't hurt to ask. I find returning/exchanging things to be such a hassle. I know that they will become like that after the first wear so it doesn't really matter, but it's the principle that they have been creased and scuffed up and sold to you...
