The most comfortable dress shoe I have ever worn in my life!!! Each model is named after one of the founders. Whether at the store or online, find the right fit and you'll wear them into the ground! No joke!
Five years ago (2015) I found this American (Michigan) brand at the L'illa mall here in Barcelona.
There was something about the stitch and the top edges of the sole that took me straight back to the 80's/90's loafers. I had to have them.
Resoled and resoled and then lost (nooooo!), the brand label long since worn off, i had no way to find the brand until...
I made my way back to this store to find them again and there they are! Woo hoo!!!!
+++ not like typical Italian leather that must be broken in over months (I used to justify my pain -- "the more expensive they are, the greater the pain, but the greater the beauty!!)
NOT LIKE OTHER FINE LEATHER SHOES!!!
+ no need to keep a second pair of comfy slippers with you (to relieve the pain) while you break these in.
+++ they just hug and love your feet like the most comfortable slipper! No joke!
Today I bought the massive-rubber-soles "Dan Lug" one half size bigger than my usual,
And
+++ the "classic tassel brushed" replaces my original.
Let's hope I can set these aside for once a week max, so as not to wear them out!
Next up, the deck shoes for next summer!! Can't wait for them to come back in season!! read more
