Today's Shoes

Gravati cap-toe whole-cut bluchers in navy Lama calf (15537, last 640). No, not llama. The tannery calls this particular leather Lama for reasons known only to themselves. I've heard it called "shrunken" calf, too. It's a soft, grained calfskin that takes a great shine. It looks very good in navy, too. I saw Jim Pierce, who owns the shoe concession at Harold's in the Heights, wearing a pair of these, and I decided that I needed a pair, too.
