I think those White Klouds are beautiful, but I cant get behind that uber high polished heel, it almost looks like polyurethane or some other plastic coating.

[thomasnunnally]

That polished heel is crazy!

[Giles]

I spend my life lusting.  Lusting has just upped a notch - polished heel or not…..

[joesaintjohn]

I second Gs thoughts. Green. Beautiful.

@G-San…

Not polished, just because you'll probably put them for display if its polished.. Beautifullllll......

[Giles]

I am def going to try and hunt some of these down, just for a look (of course), when I am next in Tokyo….

What are the chances that G doesn't order up a pair?

[Chiba J.]

Yours truly getting a fitting by Goto-san (aka Mr. White Kloud) at Mushmans last weekend.

Not planning on getting anything at the moment, but Goto-san is willing to build a new custom last for my large feet.

sockless?  i never would have guessed it was done that way.

cool image, thank you for sharing

Chiba, are you the guy who posted about the very tasty Rainbow Country jackets at the Fedora Lounge?

If so, you really should put some pictures up here, and do your bit to help Japan's balance of trade.

[Chiba J.]

That's me. I'll try and post some pics in the Leather Jacket thread. Not sure if it'll help the national economy, but damn there are a lot of nice jackets being produced here!

I'm planning an interview with Goto-san of White Kloud. If any one has any Q's they'd like me to lay on him, PM me.

^hey, Chiba [aka Kashiwa(?)]__ tnx for sharing your "leather" enthusiasm.  LUVed those Motos & recently WK.

peeps seem to misread pure admiration with ownership.
tho i loved any of those pairs i posted,  i don't have the "lifestyle" to justify wearing them.
i don't have the fund,  nor the time to wait on an MTO.

for me, WK is my GG [Gaziono Girling] … since i'm not really a dress shoes kinda guy.

What type of product would be best to use on suede?
Just to avoid water staining, but without 'sealing' it, silicone free o.c.

[demonito]

none mich just brush them when you get home
