shoes

IMHO, WOW!!!

I "PERSONALLY" feel that this type shoe is the ONE wear, if you are going to go Black Tie & definitely a MUST for White Tie. & the proper Jacket ( NOT a PC, IMHO)

Another idea is that by changing the "buckle" ( for the occasion ) it is "adaptable"

Sad to say, I only have a pair of "non custom" that I use for "dress period wear ( and the 2xs I "borrowed a DRESS JACKET for an event ) but if I went to more "DRESS" events, Your shoes would be in my "closet.)

Here I go, chiming in again...

DWFII, would it be a lot of work to post a few "in progress" pics of a pair of shoes you're making? I've never seen that process, and I'd imagine several of the Rabble would like to see just exactly how you go about making such fine footwear. We've seen "in progress" pics of kilts, hose, cromachs, kilt pins, sgian dubhs and many other things being made, so I'd appreciate adding a pair of your shoes to that list. And if you want to give the shoes to a deserving member of our illustrious assemblage, I know a certain person whose size 12s would appreciate the gesture.
