Do you recall how the apron sitiching looked? Was it squared off like the Indy or round like a Barrie Tanker?

Think round but not certain

I guess not knowing is better for me, anyway.

Note - I thought the boot looked like Trubalance but was told it was definitely Barrie. Might want to triple check before pulling trigger -- I'm also 98% sure my other specs are correct but inspected quickly on little sleep and no coffee. Believe they were $590.

Were they the Dark Brown alpine grain?

Might just shut down the computer and head to the bar.

To paraphrase another level-headed lad, That is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend it.

Seeing as the store replied and said they sold the shoe at 1:05 today. (I guess PM) that just confirms it. To bad I'm not wearing Bourbon AE's today. It would have fit the mood nicely...

Ugh, been eyeing a Ravello tassel online but couldn't pull the trigger till this week. Now appears to be gone. My stomach just dropped a mile.

Where did you find ravello tassels? Pelle Linea were the only folks that I know of that stocked them, but they have been sold out for some time.

That was the one. The site showed a bunch of sizes, however the CS rep said they only had one 11.5D, the one I wanted. Just as in life, I thought there would have been more time... That mistake won't be replicated. Curse my love of shoes and cars. If its some one here, let me know if they don't fit.

I think the 8 is already gone...
