Exquisite Shoes
Gaz. Those shoes are simply amazing. I've not had shoes from Hidetaka but its clear from your pictures that he does an incredible job. On the one hand they're conservative but executed with great flair and impeccable craftmanship. Good stuff. Tony also does fantastic work. He made a me a pair of shoes years back when he was at Cleverley some 10 years ago and they still look amazing! I'll post some pictures soon. Your new order from Hidetaka look like another work of art in progress. Look forward to seeing how they take shape. Best wishes, Maroon.
How lovely!
