Right nice pictures but are your shoes handwelted or glued?

 

[Noblekostas]

Is this actually the first wear? And it looks like loose grain?

 

[JFWR]

That loose grain wrinkling, esp into the toe caps ?

I was going to mention this in my review later. I'm a little concerned.

Hand welted. You can see the stitching on page 1.

Yes. First wear outside. I've only worn them for an hour inside. I'm a bit concerned on the creasing...

Waiting to see how you actually feel now after wearing them ?

 

[JohnMRobie]

Hand welted. You can see the stitching on page 1.

There is no picture on page 1 showing that they’re hand welted.

I don't see the photo?

Let’s see the bumps.

 

[JFWR]

I don't have natural light right now, but I will take a close up picture again. I was referencing photo 3. It is hard to zoom in enough to show the stitching.

Give me a bit: eating supper momentarily. I'll update this evening.

 

[Noblekostas]

Check the insoles or under them anyone can fake the welt these days or see the method the other guys used in the other thread

 

[JohnMRobie]

So picture 3 wouldn’t show anything about whether it’s glued, hand welted or Goodyear welted. You might want to check the archibald forum or my thread I posted here earlier today and it’ll give you a better idea of what you’re looking for.
