Here's a couple more - sorry for the quality.

Alfred Sargent, almost 3 years old. Worn weekly. First resole, deglazed with Renomat, one layer of Saphir cream.

Did you have Sargent resole them. Excellent job! Now THAT'S why you buy good shoes.

A very nice re-soling job by AS there. You sent them back to the factory I presume?

No, I had them resoled by a local cobbler! Not cheap though, I paid a total of 80 Euros. I will bring another pair to him on saturday.

Oh! It was the double row of nails that fooled me.

I owned the same shoe in brown and it was one of my favorites. Well done.

Amazing to see these in perfect shape after 3 years and a resoling. Wear them in good health.

My first pair of good shoes and still my favourite: Alfred Sargent, bought in June 2007. Worn weekly. First resole, stripped with Renomat, two layers of Saphir cream.

I am digging all these re-solings. Need to sell some shoes to wear them out.

Old stock Church's Custom Grade I purchased on Ebay a few years back that have been well worn and now resoled. I have a similar pair in tan, branded as Alan Mcafee, that will be done next weekend. Terrible photo, I know.

 

[artoftime]

those are a nice score.
