great score on some lovely shoes

[louisbosco]

shell??? can we have close ups please???? always wanted a tanker in that color..

[tigerpac]

Whiskey shell!  They're seconds b/c of the blotches.  I've got a pair of Carminas with whiskey shell and they get marks anyway so not too worried. Pic borrowed from my buddy who sent them to me.  How's that for a close up?  Should be getting them at the end of the week!

pic not loading

whiskey/ravello/ cigar shell. any of those is on my wishlist in a tanker. or indy.. oh the lust for it.

[tigerpac]

Weird, its loading for me

let's try…

[madmonday]

great shoe.  a tanker I would be all over, not so much of a fan of indies, I'm just weird like that.

[cristeza]

Hey Mad, what do you think of the context x alden tanker?

[madmonday]

I love em, BUT I would love a color besides that number 8.

[louisbosco]

thanks tigerpac!! looks beautiful. the shine on it.

yeah i do prefer tanker over indys. had a pair of indy sold it to get the tanker. honestly, i've seen too much of their no8, it's time horween bring back the other colors.

[tigerpac]

Stilllll waiting… damn you UPS!

Trying to decide between taps and topy or just topy.  Don't want to have to send back for recrafting for a loooong time.

[tigerpac]

Caught!  Dropped off at the good shoe guy for taps and topy.

My pictures can't do them justice compared to the pics I've already posted though lol

Just Chief Thanks! I don't expect anyone to understand the Navy rank system. It's even confusing to the other 3 branches. haha.

looking good. . . . you've lost weight?

Pants look a touch long, Chief; is that regulation length?

And congratulations again on the promotion, by the way.

Thanks Chris Yeah, a touch long. Ugh. There were 80 of us that got fitted in one day, and there are a couple things that are a little off. It didn't help that the photographer was adjusting the break to look a certain way in the picture. Time to get hemmed!!!

Thanks! And the Barrie last is so perfect for my feet. I know it's not for everyone, but it's my favorite last for sure.
