Think I'm going to pull the trigger and buy these bad boys.

Scroll up if it lands in the middle of the page. It wouldn't just let me download a pic. I love these shoes.

The pair I am wearing right now, I call my "Elvis Presley" shoes (blue suede).

I am very happy with the company that makes them, they are the most comfortable I have ever worn (except for another pair from the same company). The brand name is Samuel Hubbard. My other pair finally had to be resoled (the company has a resoling service for most of their shoes), I just got them back today.
