Don't know if the leather-soled is offered anymore, either online or at the 346 store. If you call Maria at the 346 store, she can tell you what she has.

Thank you. I'll have to look for the double leather soled ones the next time I visit the US.

Why is there a difference between the toe of the left shoe (smooth) and the right shoe (slightly bumpy like a faux stitch)?

it's the pic/camera, they are both the same although they look different in the pic.

It looks like faux stitching - as if the liner was sutured and is showing through.

I'm still not sure what's so outstanding about split-toes with a split so subtle - it's barely visible even with a camera a few inches from it. Doesn't that defeat the purpose if it's not visible.
