Two by Two

December 15, 2009

We received a delivery of Edward Green MTO’s and immediately realized a very interesting coincidence. All of the pairs had a fraternal twin, a mate or partner if you will in the parlance of our times.

This group really got me psyched; there are some very special shoes here.

G&G MTO’s, Tulsa Bound

December 13, 2009

We received these new Gaziano & Girling Made to Order pairs this week, which were dispatched, immediately to our client in Oklahoma. We’re confident that he’ll enjoy them a great deal. A finer shoe cannot be found in Tulsa, other than his pairs of Corthay, Edward Green, Rider, and Alden we’ve sent him.

Vendome

November 29, 2009

This Pierre Corthay wingtip has been coming on strong for a while. Normally produced on the 001 last we have also had it made up on the 002, needless to say both are very handsome.

What distinguishes this shoe from more traditional wingtips is the low profile of the wing, a more modern toe medallion, along with the sleek styling, which is synonymous with Pierre; this is a very elegant and sophisticated shoe.

Church’s Westbury – MTO

November 27, 2009

The Westbury monk strap by Church’s is one of their classic styles. When our client D.G. requested these two pair we knew there was going to be a twist. That’s because he had previously ordered a pair of Grafton’s made up as a spectator, which was very unique.

I like it when customers have shoes made up that are one of a kind. I admire those that can envision a pair in a way that is singular and special, these two fit that bill.
