The darker splotches on the soles are from dew on the ground and leaves.

I'm waiting for the reverse chamois wing tips from Yenni also. Originally it was dec-feb 2015-2016. Did u ask her for an update?

I think the website now indicates a December or January delivery. Hoping for December

Maiden voyage for the Ravello....dont know if they go with the pants but I was wearing them regardless

I don't wear them much, but I always appreciate my Ironside Indys from Ep. I played goalie at my kid's school fundraiser in these today. Not a dent in the leather, not a ding on the welt, despite the many shots on goal taken at me. Of course, they're cool boots, but I still suck at soccer...

Good Morning RTP! Welcome to Tampa. I hope you enjoy our awesome airport. I am in town today (well, St Pete). I'm wearing the Whiskey Chukkas today. Love those natty CXLs!

Leffot x Color 8 LWB today. I think this is a shoe I'll try getting a second pair for. I could wear these almost every day as they go with everything.

Berns is great food in Tampa. For travelers also check out Bones in Atlanta and Abe & Louie's in Boston. All great steak joints! And to keep it on topic... suede Friday. Jcrew and lined. Crepe sole.

Gentlemen, these are all so good all around. So many great makeups and styles. Love the slew of LHSes over the past few days. Also great looking CTs Mac, congrats NAMOR and IC on your new pickups, particularly cool to see those old makeups N! Congrats on those Ravellos NSTs.

Here's her response from November 14th. At the time she estimated them to be 10-12 weeks out.

IMHO, I think it works. Flat welt, 270 degree, it's all good...

In the Alden family now. Bought those shoes for a ridiculous discount. Recall I was looking at the 990 Shell Cordovan a few days ago and they look slightly worn in stores?

The manager was about to give me 25% off from the gate given my haggling but I talked about tax so she gave me 30% off so I saved 216 bucks maybe more. I'm pretty happy with my decision.
