Munich — the fox and the hen

Finally, the first pair of shoes on my new-and-improved bespoke last is ready for delivery. I am quite satisfied with the outcome. Especially the sole is nothing short of spectacular (in a very modest, non-Paolo-ian way, of course...). I am starting to really appreciate the qualities of suede (this one is fox colored), especially for travel purposes. Next on the list are a pair of chelsea boots in dark brown suede and a pair of burgundy whole cuts in a hatch grain calf leather as well as some modified penny loafers. And then, there is still a pair of green cordovan hides waiting for me...
