Once again time for a review of my shoe collection at its current state – one of the most asked for articles from readers. This time it’s 30 pairs of shoes shown in lots of pictures and some text.
Time for a new review of my shoe collection as it looks right now. Quite a lot has happened over the last two years since I last had time to do this type of post, although the amount is the same: 23 pairs in total.
The toe spring, how much the toe tip is raised from the ground, can actually be tweaked by using different types of shoe trees. For example, if you want to have a lower toe spring, use a tree with a flat bottom towards the toe that push the toe down when inserted. With time, the toe spring of the shoes will be lowered.
Every year I go through my shoe collection, as it looks at present time. A lot of lovely shades of brown, and one black model. 23 pairs in total, but several pairs will be sold of due to foot issues I have, more about that further down in the article.
A while back I bought this pair of Alfred Sargent Handgrade Benson to a very cheap price on Ebay. A shoe from a not too big brand like AS which looks really beaten up doesn’t go for much. But withs some simple true love and care they came out looking real nice again. Here’s a series of photos showing of the difference.
