Our Gaziano & Girling trunk show this past Wednesday was an unqualified success. Dean and I were busy all day fitting, advising and just schmoozing with our clients who placed several MTO and Bespoke orders. I think everyone had a very enjoyable experience and are now eagerly awaiting their new shoes. On a personal note [...]

The Presidential campaign is officially in high gear, and with all the media coverage there is one area I have heard nothing about. What kind of shoes are these candidates wearing?

I had originally planned to write a post about the All Star Game that is being played at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday which is kind of a big deal in New York. The passing of Bobby Murcer changed that. I really enjoyed listening to Bobby’s smooth style of broadcasting, his analysis and humor. I never [...]
Last night I watched the 2005 Miramax movie Kinky Boots for the first time. I hadn’t heard of it until a customer asked me if I had seen it. I enjoyed it; it was funny, poignant, if not a bit over the top and predictable. In case you are not familiar with the story imdb.com [...]
Today we have James Ewing the official photographer of Leffot here to take pictures of the shoes for our website which we plan to launch later this month. We’ll keep you posted.
