The London Lounge

i have been meaning to post these for the best part of a month now but i have not been able to get the picture from the camera to the pc but any way here they are



they start life as a lovely pink color

Very nicely executed! (How I do love a well-fiddled waist!)

Those are great looking shoes that GG made for you!

The long apron, 2 eyelit style and beveled waist are very elongating and going to make your foot look slim and elegant in the old Venetian shoe style.

What are you planning to wear these shoes with?

How was your experience in working with GG?

thanks RWS and UC!!

working with G&G is really a peice of cake!

i wear them with just about anything but i prefer charcoal pants more than anything else at the minute

we took the idea from their RTW hove being 4 eyelet and TG has a single eyelet BS sample there too but it did not talk to me so 2 it was

the patina has come on a bit since these pic were taken and it become a lot darker with the red become low lights
i wanted a more smart casual look modern but classic

i am a 41F size and these are the same length as my vas F-Last but they just look so much more elegant without being too sleek

Very nice pair of shoes -- great design + I believe these were made shuch that there is no seam at the back of the shoe.

Well done!

sorry i thort i posted that pic here too yes seamless heel the only sean in the split toe!



SJ1 yes you are right i think also it was the first time TG had made a Norwigian in this way with only the front seam.

Thanks for the pic

Absolutely stunning both visually and technically

If James Bond had been more given to lace-ups, these are the very shoes which he would have worn with his old hounds-tooth suit in his drive to the Royal St Mark's for his golfing duel with Auric Goldfinger.

When you ask your friends 'How do I look in these shoes?' the only reply would be 'Very pleased!'

thank you , and a happy new year to you too!

these also have come out really nice, can you give me a close up of the waist? the new waist on G&G's RTW are now so close to bespoke it is scary.

this is a great color and with useing dark brown wax the patina is awesome IMO!

I work for a living guys, I will try to find time in the next few weeks. By the way, do you use any polish besides a dark brown for this color Luk-Cha? I am not sure what to use. Tony was going to send me some polish of whatever color he recommends for it.
