Dear Readers,
It’s probably been the busiest 6 weeks of my life and I am quite glad to say that it is now all over and I can finally have a bit of peace and quite before the holiday season. I just came back from Milan yesterday after attending the Lineapelle fair and am proud to say that it was a great trip full of productivity and new personal relationships developed. I have found some exciting materials to work with for future shoe models and am working on developing a relationship with Italy’s most famous tannery, Ilcea. I am quite excited to start working with them and hope that in doing so, I can continually increase the quality of my shoes while keeping the prices as low as I possibly can. So, I have taken quite a few pictures and have quite a few posts to create but need a few days in order to go threw all of them and thus edit them. But cool things to come!
On another note, I have had another round of my Tony II (J.FitzPatrick Footwear) model completed with patina by Mr. Alexander Nurulaeff of Dandy Shoe Care�and thought that you would all like to see the cool creations!�We have now sold about ⅔rds of the original order and I just wanted to update all of you that may have been contemplating taking part in this that there are now only 6 pairs left. They are UK6, UK8.5, UK9, UK9.5, UK10 and UK10.5. After these are sold, there will not be another opportunity to get this model complete with DSC patina unless one was to pay an MTO price to get a one-off pair. Bear in mind that what you see here are simply the choices of the customers that have ordered and that anyone can really get whatever they desire, as far as color and style go.

Stay tuned in the coming days/weeks for exclusive posts on TSS!
Sincerely,

Justin, they are beautiful! Can I ask if you are still planning to do your MTO-Narrow fit shoe. I have the exact same problem as you. Size 10.5UK, long, narrow, flat and low volume.
dear hayden, yes I am….as soon as possible….just working on the lasts and they are not coming along as quickly as I had hoped
Oh my god, the continous upper of those shoes looks beautiful. I’ve never seen anything like these. One day I will get a pair!
The shoes are fantastic!
These are just amazing! Only problem is possibilites are infinite and I wouldn’t know which one to pick on!
