Who's gonna be the lucky SOB to get his first?

Do we want pics or do we want to be surprised opening the boxes? I'm leaning towards the surprise...

Well they shipped Friday and one pair shipped to Chicago - so he'll have them today! Yeah, lets see some photos as they roll in


I guess that's me! Unfortunately I'm away in Boston and won't be able to get them until later this week... glad to hear I will be the only person in Chicago rocking these!

I am outside of Chicago in Des Plaines and I do regularly go to Chicago so you might be seeing mine as well:)

not a good representation of the color due to the flash. the 2060 sole is awesome. Really comfortable out of the box. I did the 1/2 size down from brannock. I could`ve gone to a full length for more toe room but I supposed this would stretch to allow for winter socks with wear.

nice, mine should be here tomorrow. can't wait to start breaking them in, i put off getting trail oxfords far too long considering it's my favorite style of shoe.

Hey guys,
I actually made a pair of these for myself too - i'm so excited to start wearing them. HOWEVER, i have showings next week in NYC, and I figure I should show retailers this leather (it's called Cavalier), and they should see the sole - soooo, I can't start wearing the until late next week!

One of the many advantages of this sole is the weight. For those of you who have trail oxfords with the cristy sole, you'll notice how incredibly light the 2060 is. A lot softer, yet very long lasting and 'tough' for wear.

More photos! Lets see them as they role in

+1 on the vibram sole being light. It felt so good I wanted to do squats in them at the gym.
