Thoughts on these shoes?

Salvatorre Ferragamo Tramezza "Torrent" shoes

You thoughts? I've had my eye on them for several days now.

They look as though they will crease rather readily.

Is that good or bad? Aren't shoes supposed to crease over time anyway?

They look a bit flogged. I like them but would not pay much.

I sold a pair of Torrents a while back. Nice shoes, quality wise, but the proportions looked off to my eye. The wing is very small in profile, and I can't say that appealed.

Have you checked 'em out in real life? If you dig 'em, they're fine shoes.

I think there are better looking full brogue wing tips out there. These are just ok.

 

[distinctive]

I would agree with Doc and say these aren't quite balanced

How did you come to that conclusion?

I like the color of them and they look slender enough. Very lightweight shoe.

meh. Something's off to me. The toebox seems too long and square. I think there are nicer Ferragamo models. But, if you like them, go for it.

I own 'em. The last is very long and very narrow. They fit TTS but you may want to move up a width.

The color is nice ad they did not crease badly at all.

nice shoes... would be a great addition to my own shoe collection

not a fan.. proportions seem off.

Not quite 'right' to my eye. But, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
