i thought we went over this

modern shoes > weird looking vintage shoes circa 1930s


wtf are you talking about and why are you bringing this up again?

We've already had a ruling on this from a moderator, and moreover why do you care? he's simply sharing information, you don't have to like the shoes.

^^ Amazing.

Is that on Riva Last?
No it's Classic last instead of standard and fugly Sailor last (imho). Also not standard color and outdoor sole instead of leather sole.
Absolutely smooth deal and 8 weeks delivery MTO via Dennis made-to-order-paris. You can drop him an order on any model MTO from the SC catalogue, not ot only what he got on his site.

Maybe later you can show some pics of the sole? This is crazily well made ...love the norwegian stitching...does it go all around? I was tempted with all this talk of EG Galway but this is a breathtaking boot. Although I am lazy and would probably want speed hooks. Congrats on a great choice.

These are 2-3 sizes too big for you. Your running shoe size is not your dress shoe size. These look like two loaves of bread on you.
