Conseils pour vos souliers (suite) Sachez que bien décrasser vos souliers, disons 2x par an, les préservent pour longtemps, à condition de le faire intensément... il faudrait une petite heure pour vous acquitter de cette tâche...

Conseils pour vos souliers (suite)

Dans le commerce, il y a des produits pour décrasser vos souliers, ainsi vous évitez le pire... Autrement j'utilise de l'acétone pour des cas extrêmes... tout en sachant qu’il faudrait nourrir le cuir d’avantage… Quelques exemples de cuir, dont un surplus de cirage à complètement bouché les pores... et en particulier aux endroits ou le cuir est d'avantage sollicité par la flexion. Ceci crée des crevasses qui à la longue transpercent et déchirent le cuir... Souvent je découvre après avoir enlevé une épaisse couche de cirage, que le dessous du cuir est desséché et abîmé. Quelques photos pour l'illustrer: Acheter vos chaussures jamais trop grandes et surtout pas trop petites en longueur, ça vous évite de vous retrouver avec des chaussures bricolées...

Auch wenn wir vom Jazz sprechen, vom Leben in New Orleans um die Jahrhundertwende, soll der grosse Jelly Roll Morton (aufgezeichnet 1938 in der Library of Congress) folgendes gesagt haben: "Ich habe nicht geruht, bis ich endlich einen Stetson und ein Paar Clapp-Schuhe mein eigen nennen konnte!

JOHN LOBB Important Antique Bespoke Navvy Cut Field Boots, Circa 1940: 42,5D. All original except for the new laces, the last word for the collector, a museum piece but eminently wearable, this is the finest boots I have ever offered.

JOHN LOBB Important Antique Bespoke Navvy Cut Field Boots, Circa 1940: 42,5D

Safely dated to 1945 or earlier (of course well before Hermes’ acquisition of the Paris branch). They are custom made, perfectly preserved and beautifully patina-ed. This classic model is still made to day: The warmth and beauty of the leather can hardly be described nor can the photos do more than begin to do this masterpiece justice. I estimate that today, with VAT and boot trees this would be a Euro 6300 ordered from Lobb, but in that case you would be getting just another new boot, not this great treasure that comes trailing clouds of glory from a more gracious time in history. The effect of this boot on the connoisseur who sees you wearing it is incomparable.

The overwhelming beauty of these boots is to be found in their absolute correctness. The size: These are custom made so unmarked as to size. John Lobb Bootmaker.
