Whenever I wear the Aubercy Malaury it’s always commented on. Today we set it against this classic plaid English cashmere scarf by Psycho Bunny to bring a bit of holiday color to the store. When we detailed the Aubercy styles we had the option of choosing the lining colors, and as you can see here [...]
It’s a rainy day in the New York area and my client Joe S. sent me an email this morning asking what shoes I wear in the rain. In my opinion the Alden All Weather Walker is perfect for a light rain. The grained leather upper will withstand some moisture and the natural plantation crepe [...]
Our latest MTO arrival is from Pierre Corthay. This is the Wilfrid in black calf and black suede, a very elegant combination. The suede reminds me somewhat of a pair of spats.
This week we feature our new Alden’s Chukka boots in unlined Snuff Suede. These are on the leather flex soles. I really love the color play with the purple Psycho Bunny scarf and tie.
We received some beautiful MTO’s from Edward Green yesterday. I am posting them today because I think it’s only fair the client has the first look (actually I have the first look but as your trusted adviser it’s a professional privilege). I’ve posted a few Corthay MTO’s but I believe these are the first Edward [...]

Abel is one of our best Corthay clients, last evening he came in with his Wilfrid’s and looked a little upset. He had fallen victim to the mean streets of New York; it happens. He scuffed the ball of the right shoe taking off some color. Before After We went to work on it with [...]
Today feels like a loafer kind of day, after the time change everyone seems to be moving rather leisurely. So today I’m wearing the Edward Green “Bamford” in Coffee Suede. It’s soft, light and good looking what more can you ask for? The “Bamford” in Coffee Suede with hand punched medallion toe.
This week we are featuring the Aubercy derby the Faelen in our front window. This shoe is made in rich chocolate brown grain calf with a brown suede inset and suede tassels on the laces.
