Ghillies w/ Ghillie Flaps?
I have seen photos of this style of Ghillie Brogues before:
but have never seen them around my area in person. I actually like the style of these (for wear at games etc) and was curious if anyone knew of an on-line supplier in black (and EE if possible?).
The ones pictured are very nice, but at $2,575.00 CDN that's more than a wee bit steep for me!
A little background on the one's pictured:
Custom-made Gilley Brogues made from 200 year old Catharina von Flensburg leather.
These come with tongues, or "Gilley" flaps, that can be removed for regular town or country wear. The tongues are traditional with country Highland dress.

Also, is there another (more correct) term for this style of Ghillie?
Thanks.
