Cole Haan Judson Grand Plain Toe Derby (Men) | Nordstrom。Extra Shipping cost for 5.5 lbs. I am including a sweet set of vintage Nordstrom cedar shoe trees with these shoes for extra protection during shipping. From \"Classic Shoes for Men\": In the early 2000s Cole-Haan presented a line of Italian shoes and boots of extraordinary quality and beauty. These immediately garnered a cult following among American collectors and were quickly sold out everywhere, in spite of their $600-800 prices, more than double Cole-Haan’s usual prices at the time. Perhaps the most remarkable of these exceptional shoes is the shoe shown here, a Norwegian both in style and in construction, the “Goiser\". True Norwegian (or “Goiser”, from the Austrian mountain region of that name) construction is the most complicated in shoemaking, utilizing a twice-sewn “split reverse welt”, employed for its water-repellent properties. In Cole-Haan’s more than a century of existence and my half-century of collecting, this particular Norwegian is the single most intricately made shoe that I have ever seen presented by them, nor have I seen a second example of this shoe. It is an uncontested museum-piece. The split-toe and apron are hand raised and the 360 degree Goiser welt is further embellished with a 360 degree decorative braid. The choice of leathers alone would make this a must; a buttery mocha calf skin of peerless quality. made in Brasil co2883
