As mentioned above, I'm having my old claret CC resoled as nailed. What strikes me about the original CC, is how the chisel toe is enhanced/exaggerated by the presence of the protruding rim. With the nailed sole, the lack of such rim softens the toe shape by optical illusion. Lear
Absolutely, I had seen photos here before, and also examined a pair in store (in Cambridge) with the pronounced toe ... so these really surprised me when I took them out of the box. I like the chisel toe, but im also enjoying these nevertheless. The fit is supreme!
