Can someone post a picture of wheeling & fudging vs. non-wheeling & fudging?  Please?


Pretty sure th shoe posted right above your post is wheeled and fudged...however I am a know wheel, fudged, rolled welt confusion machine so I reserve the right to be wrong.

Yea I knew he was proposing a new MTO. I just had a 2nd from the web gem down below. Probably should have just sent a PM.

My understanding: Black shoe above has only wheeling. Brown shoe has both wheeling and fudging. The fudging basically hides the stitching on the welt.

No wonder the wheeling on my MTO strands looks so bad. I only asked for wheeling instead of fudging when I had to have them remade.

I wonder if they will fudge, too when I get them recrafted.

Strand
Burgundy shell cordovan
Independence lining & insole
Medium brown transparent edge dressing
Brown normal welt
Single JR sole
Wheeling & fudging

UPDATE!!! – We now have 11 for the Strand. We only need ONE more!

that is awesome you guys got to 11 so fast ...nice work. I really would not have the occasion to ever wear these but the makeups sounds great. My rash purchase today has sunk my budget...or sunk it further...

Anyone interested in:

Jefferson
Brown shell cordovan
Independence insole and lining
Tone on tone stitching
Brown flat welt with wheeling and fudging
Light brown transparent edge dressing
Single JR sole

I have too many cap toes and no wingtip.


@watchidiot Shell Jefferson

I'd be in (and I'm an 11E if someone happens to have an extra from the Webgem). ;-)

$550? Let me think. I have something like 15 Aldens in production and need to be careful, because I have already totally blown my shoe budget twice over. Let you know tomorrow. I am really a huge fan of the Indy sole. Same performance as the JR., but looks absolutely awesome. -Mike

Guys, I gotta back out for now--I'd forgotten about some upcoming travel expenses that I'll have to eat in the near future. I'm sure this will be an awesome makeup; sorry I can't grab one right now.

Not to dampen everyone's spirit but I haven't yet received confirmation from Paul if we could make this into regular program. I will follow up today.
