Yup don't see any welt. Also there seems to be a rather long mark on the left shoe. Finishing is not good. Hope it doesn't cost much.
Wonder why it is a 2 month wait.

You are right ... I look for the Cordovan the prices are $2000. I see online only Euro 500+, less than S$900, online price is tempting ...

The mark up for cordovan is really astonishing.
Strangely the creame and polish are well priced at $15

My loafers? By uncle Song. I am not too sure what are the materials he used. Basically what I did was give him a picture of the shoes I have in mind, he measured my feet and then picked the leather from his stock.

Why? I can only wear size37 from edetal, but they dont carry loafers that size and there are none in the local stores of that size.

Uncle song as in Kwek Choong Shoemaker?

Wah old uncle also can make split toe penny loafers. Can't say much for his last style but he's known for his comfort first anyway. How's the comfort? And possible to have pics of sole/insole to see the construction he used?

Now what's next for you? Lee hoi wah?

Any meermin / herring owners here?

I'm a UK7 on Herring's 026 Classic last (laced up brogues). Should I downsize on Meermin's loafers on Ron last?
