These were custom made for me by a shoemaker in Turkey by hand. Size 10.5. They’re made of full grain calf leather similar to what is used for Berlutti shoes (far better than leather that comes on garbage shoes from places like Nordstrom). The soles are attached with the Blake Stitch method and the thread is hidden under a layer of protective leather. Excellent condition, always stored with shoe trees and polished only with Saphir polish, the best in the world. The paisley design is pressed into the leather. These are the real deal. You can see from the excellent condition of the soles that I wore them only one time to a wedding. I am selling other shoes in this size, so please check my closet to make a bundle deal. Thanks!
