      If you don't mind spending the extra money, I highly recommend getting the custom fitting. It worked great for me.

          Why preferably the old black tie leather?

              @Superfuzz, Ah hah great and very relevant question, because the new stuff has a grey pull up quality to it, and does not have the same aniline finish. I wanted a more dress leather. I kinda feel like I'm taking a gamble with the new black tie, but figure it must be good, seeing as they've replaced the existing stuff. Just wish they offered a brown base/black aniline finished leather for patina purposes…

                    I thought Baker's couldn't sell the 1339 last (the MP toe with the taller heel), for licensing reasons or something like that?  Anyway that's good to know…

                    Also, do you need a liner with the domain leather?

                      They line the vamp as default, quarters no. The new domain absolutely does not need a liner in uppers not sure about the old stuff though

                      As for the 1339 last; my understanding is the 5yr lisencing agreement is up

                              Forget about it.  The wife wants a pair,  too.

                                  My wife is better than winning the lottery. She's more than I ever deserved. And she'll look so damn sharp in Wesco's.

                                          That's what I thought. Basically walking around in them… I don't do physical work,  except some gardening.
