Today's Shoes

Day

Cleverley side-elastic shoe with hand-stitched apron seam in burgundy calf. These shoes have inlaid steel tips on the toes. I tend to wear the toes of my soles down very quickly, and resoling bespoke shoes costs more than every single pair of shoes that Ben Brumfield has ever owned put together. The steel tips are a good way to extend the lives of the soles. The problem is that it sounds like I'm tap-dancing whenever I walk on hard floors in them.

Evening

John Lobb Paris Venetian loafer in dark brown calf (Chester model, 6000 last).
