I've been working with the best leather in the world every day since June 2006. Owning a pair of shell footwear is something that I have always wanted. I've tried, unsuccessfully, several times to get myself fitted into some shell cordovan footwear.
Nick Horween and Brett Viberg were kind enough to help me get the correct sizing and style shell cordovan boot of my own. They helped me pick a Derby Boot on the 110 last in natural shell cordovan. Brett also suggested a Danite sole and speed laces in brass. At the end of January my order details were confirmed with Viberg.
Got a progress update on Valentine's Day, February 14th.
On March 5th they were completed at the factory.
Received less than a week later.
