I was digging Moo's Dovers that he posted on the other page, then I looked at the Leather Soul site & saw these...

I did like the pebble grain and the style as a whole, but I just need double soles & exposed welts (it's my illness/ addiction). With a stroke of luck, these fell into my lap.

NOS Florsheim imperial Custom Order Apron Toes. Definitely not the same shoe as the Dover, but I think it's the Dover's tougher and grizzled "grandfather".

Sherman Bros has had them online, though they're not listed as part of their Santoni collection right now.
