its little, I mean little, its got a second level but the first level is long and really narrow. They sell mostly Alden which is a good US ready made shoe. I have often read about the store and the owner, Maurizio, and that he specializes in a Alden style called the "modified last" which is supposed to be very comfortable on some feet. I went there the other day because I was bored and bought a pair of burgandy derby shoes on the Modifed Last..
I really lilke them. I must have the foot for them because they are very comfortable. they have a retro style that I like. They're heavy and have a high toe cap with a 40's shape toe but they look good with three button suits.
I also got a suede penny loafer made specially for the store in a light buff color which are unusual and comfortable.
The shoes are inexpensive, about 375 each, and for members that don't have a ton of money to spend, its a good choice. And its a store with very good service that should be supported and you can get things there which unusual and pleasing.
