    Here is another pair of Lattanzi. My exact size and wanted to buy these on ebay, but the seller is uncontactable. Would have been amazing to own those. Hardly worn.

    Look forward to hearing your review on the Lattanzi. A couple more pics of my Lattanzi. They look much better in person, and they continue to WOW me every time l look at them. They actually look vintage with a great natural looking patina. Truthfully, they are the nicest and most perfect...

    Today was a great day because the sun was shining and my pair of Lattanzi arrived. Here is a more accurate picture of the colour, a nice chestnut. These are really beautiful. These are a good fit. I feel very lucky to have these.

    Eric, I nearly bought this shoe recently. The greatest example of Lattanzi's workmanship. Why? Because the uppers are completely hand sewn!!! See the slightly irregular stitching? Look! A better look at the hand stitched uppers The fit was going to be very close to my size, but l think it...

    I have been eyeing off those monks for many months. They are stunning. Purchasing a Lattanzi is the ultimate cause for celebration, it is a significant purchase and something really special. It's always a great moment when l first open the box, same goes with Vass. Lattanzi are big bucks, and...

    ^ Those vintage blue shoes are superb. I bought my dream shoes today. Love nothing better than a Silvano Lattanzi when it is done right. Possibly the best shoes in the world today. Why? Because Mr Lattanzi bought a vintage stock of high quality leather in 1991 from Pebody when it closed...

    The P2 is a unique last, and not as artistic as many other lasts, but it is mainly about the ride for me. Handmade delivers the ultimate ride, and the P2 delivers the best fit of all.

    My new Vass shoes on the P2 last, my best fitting shoes. Few shoe companies make a shoe as good as Vass. Why? Because it is the way they make their shoes that makes all the difference, ie the shoe construction. A machine stitched sole v's a hand stitched sole make a big difference in how a...

    Shawl Collar Cardigans

    I am a big fan of shawl cardigans, but only the fattest cardigans will do, and l prefer mine in cashmere. Shawl cardigans are expensive for the good ones, but they are worth it. I like to wear mine with cashmere turtlenecks. Some of mine: Ballantyne 6 ply cashmere shawl (excellent and very...

    The way a Vass shoe is built makes all the difference, and the hand welting and hand stitched soles makes all the difference and the feel completely different from goodyear welted. A machine stitch is completely different to a hand sewn stitch when soles are concerned, and when a plastic feather...

    I completely agree with you Eric. These shoes do have a special beauty, and being less structured in the uppers they do have a great level of comfort. Wonderful summer elegance. Many Vass run true to size. Eg, Budapest last, 3636 last, P2 last. But then things can get tricky because it also...

    I have never seen a pair of Lloyd made like those ones. Normally Lloyd are poor quality. Please tell us more about them. Got a summer pair shoes. Vass are some of my favourite shoes, they provide a proper footwear experience that few shoes do. They are not as beautiful as the other shoes, but...

    Thanks Eric. I never knew how good they were until l first tried them on. They have a style unequalled by any loafers l know of. It is the combination of everything that makes it a perfect shoe. I feel lucky to own it.

    Simply amazing! Got these beauties this week. My Big Johnny Lobb. Still need some break in time to soften up. I never liked the pictures of them online, but when l saw them in real life l was enamoured with their beauty and ability to transform my foot into something quite elegant.

    Show Us Your OVERCOATS

    I live in Australia so l don't need too many overcoats. As of today l now own three, and l consider that a lot. My first decent overcoat was a very thick and heavy Baron Lee. It is navy with green and red in it, and it is nice. (might post pic another day). My other coat is a vintage...

    Now you are starting to change my mind. I used to have a teacher who had trained for the priesthood, and he was really stern and strict. One of his most memorable things was his shoos, they were some of the cleanest, most polished and beautiful shoes I had ever seen. Even when it rained...
