Zoals het er nu voor staat wordt mijn nieuwe John Lobb een Vale in de kleur zwart, omdat hier op het forum deze kleur de meeste stemmen kreeg:

Leather Soul: We consider the John Lobb Vale to be one of the most stunning ready-to-wear shoes in recent history.
This plain toe, single buckle monk strap with seamless heel, is just one example of John Lobb’s stunning design and craftsmanship. Chestnut Museum Calf is a perfect choice for this masterpiece. The hand finished bevelled waist is one of the key components of the Prestige Line of which the Vale is a part of.
Vale, 8000 Last, Chestnut Museum Calf
$1590.00 (lasted shoe trees included)
