I do not have many shoes in light color (sold most of them), but I have always applied black polish to them.

The pebble grain is great to me. The thing is that trekking rubber soles. May be I enjoy that fashionable street wear but in the mountains. Who knows. I am starting to open myself to different funky proposals :rimshot:. Live is short and I do not like oxfords anymore!. :revolve:
By the way, Vass gave me a free shipping code for next purchase....great CS!.

The Commando soles are one of the things I liked about the model. Would be far better for rainy Vancouver winters than double leather soles. Between the pebble grain and the soles they would be a great fit for rain, ice and slush.

Here in the Mediterránea sea.....I think that vibram sole matches well with a boot, but I might come to like it for winter time in the sierra.

How does the P last compare to the F in sizing? I sold some 43.5 monks on the F as too small -- and am looking at a pair of 45s in the P (which I fear may be too big).

It depends on your feet. I have two Norwegers on P in size 44.5 and use 45 in P2 and 45.5 in U (which I believe is similar to F). I have a high instep and wide feet. F is generally believed to be longer and narrower than P.

A couple of weeks ago I recieved a pair of Norwegers in 44.5 in burgundy, awsome shoe but was too snug, I had to return them to Budapest and exchange half a size bigger. Fruzina was great helping solving the issue, Vass Customer Service has never disappointed me.

Some pictures of the burgundy shoes. If I would have kept them, they would have had recieved some black polish. Nothing wrong with the color, just my taste for darker shades.

The first picture was taken with full early morning sunlight.

When exactly did the current FREESHIPPING code become valid? I also paid for shipping on my second to last sale pair and thought I’d try for a future code.

I was advice here by a friendly member that the code was valid for the whole week of my second purchase. Contacted Frunszina and gave me a personal freeshipping code for my next purchase . Good luck!
