The UK Made officer's shoes by say Grenson, are about ten times more comfy than this and you get proper posture. <br /><br />Add a thicker layer and it isn't just posture, but actual comfort for 14 hours of wear. RM50 per pair would be alright as the leather is crap. The sturdiness of a shoe is usually the metal shank in the middle of the sole and not anything else.

The...I guess you had never served the Armed Forces. There is a reason why those officer shoes were custom made in such a way. To the ordinary men it may seem uncomfortable or not fashionable. Officers need good posture. We dont want officers to slump when they walk. Those shoes will ensure such. Furthermore try standing on a parade ground for more than an hour in a soft comfortable shoes and you will find out why they were welted.<br /><br />I wore them for 20 years during the service and i still were them proudly till this very day because it somehow garners confidence in the user.<br /><br />and besides it is the cheapest one to manufacture. Imagine Mindef has to purchase about 100,000 pairs each year bec the officers are entitled to 2 new pair of Officer shoes every 2 years, And how much Mindef would spend if they were to purchase the Original Oxford shoes @ RM 200/pair while the Kulitkraf shoes were sold to mindef @ RM50/pair.<br /><br />But perhaps I agree it may not be suitable to the ordinary men unless you want to look smart and have a good posture.<br /><br />Cheers & happy huntingKnights Templarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10692601216608307891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349802356865820599.post-51215674891262037242020-08-21T17:34:44.141+08:002020-08-21T17:34:44.141+08:00Fuzz - not as good as the ones i see in Ho Chi Min...Fuzz - not as good as the ones i see in Ho Chi Minh City. Winson do make hand welted shoes, but it looks like the people who work on Sagara shoes also. And their lasts are still quite traditional and not elongated or chiseled like the ones I see being done by the Vietnamese shoemakers. For me, it isn't just hand welting, but the overall finishing. <br /><br />And when you see the Norwegese welting done by Fugashin first hand....then you can see what I mean.Rigval Rezahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660839462626980082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349802356865820599.post-45989109841777582582020-08-21T17:31:32.276+08:002020-08-21T17:31:32.276+08:00Davidioustan - try the cobbler at the atria in pet...Davidioustan - try the cobbler at the atria in petaling jaya. not the ppl at cambellRigval Rezahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660839462626980082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349802356865820599.post-89254424506413989842020-05-21T19:31:02.942+08:002020-05-21T19:31:02.942+08:00hi Rigval

They do handwelted construction, sleek last, tight bevelled waist. I bought handwelted museum crust leather split toe Derby with vibram topy and metal toe tap for USD 300 only. The only downside is its only MTO order so you would have have to wait few months.

It was one tough nut, the only time I took it off was to bath. It lasted me 5 years only because I accidentally broke the crown against the wall and while washing the car, got it summerged in a pail of water.That was the end of it. When my old man passed away everyone got some of his money he kept in the bank. I wanted to reminder him with that money and ended buying a the last classic men and women's TAG-Heuer with a professional strap that had gold band in the centre. It's been with me ever since.

I'm staying at KL Malaysia. I'm planning on getting one bespoke coz on the rack shoes doesn't last that long for me. Planning to get simple as cap-toe oxford black if possible. But I'm not sure whether custom made shoe shop exists in Malaysia. Would appreciate one or two recommendation from experienced.
