I looked for any more info after seeing a glimpse of them on a continuous lean blog back in Sept last year but I couldn't find a thing! http://www.acontinuouslean.com/2010/09/08/rrl-at-the-rhinelander-mansion/deluxestylinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620419721813005558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987826183912698957.post-62426275703275413112011-01-30T08:01:55.213-08:002011-01-30T08:01:55.213-08:00I could point out a few things I think could'v...I could point out a few things I think could've been done better, but the most obvious is, indeed, the vibram sole. I agree on just leaving it leather.<br /><br />All the more reason to give them the Okuyama treatment :)<br /><br />They are clearly well made and I wouldn't doubt them to be horsehide. <br /><br />The toes will flatten out perfeclty, too.<br /><br />Cheers guys!!Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18376021547727135780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987826183912698957.post-33873237334169907982011-01-30T01:44:32.194-08:002011-01-30T01:44:32.194-08:00Thought the same about the sole combination.

Nice stitching on the rear vamp too.<br />Stevedeluxestylinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620419721813005558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987826183912698957.post-55977471667923373882011-01-28T14:17:51.212-08:002011-01-28T14:17:51.212-08:00These were horsehide too, I think.

Should have left it a leather sole.<br /><br />I agree, you can pick up a true vintage pair for the same price. Why bother getting a copy? Unless its a pair of Buco's.coleslawyumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09189835652341155470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987826183912698957.post-18234724352334760882011-01-28T05:08:08.282-08:002011-01-28T05:08:08.282-08:00They are truly a thing of beauty, but $1,500 will ...They are truly a thing of beauty, but $1,500 will buy you an amazing vintage pair!Matt Stricklandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12845221954570950694noreply@blogger.com
