I can say what I like.
They are still clumpy shoes and don't suit English clothes.
Completely disagreed. When the F last shoes are looked at from 2 feet away they look awkward and not so good, and when looked at 3 feet away when one is sitting down they don't look much better. BUT when looked at in the mirror from 4 feet away (gives a reflection of about 8 foot) they look STUNNING!!! See, imo that's where it really counts, that is what the public is going to see, they see shoes from the distance. The Vass F last effect really is a highly artful shoe that adds extra manly flavour and substance over English shoes, and it improves an outfit of fine trousers and coats. The 3636 and other traditional Vass lasts have great effects on the more heavy casual clothing, impeccable effects on improving the look.
Much of the public wear flimsy looking shoes,and at a distance Edward Green and Lobb can be mistaken for flimsy IMO, but Vass gives a completely unique look...it is solid and well made look that is a work of art when seen from foot 8 feet away, where-as english shoes are just nice shoes. I see my Vass in the mirror and l am wowed every time, but with english shoes it never has that effect. Vass has a special X factor that only comes to life when seen in person...it's beautiful and artistic and organic and warm where-as english shoes are cold and clinical factory looking shoes.
When I see Vass I can clearly see the artisan product, and it makes me warm and fuzzy all over. Vass is all about the look, the manliness and the experience and the organic artisan look (hard to describe). Vass days are the best of all. Saying they are clumpy shoes is really misunderstanding the shoos by a country mile imo, there is so much to these shoos that can't be put into words. Vass are show pieces,and when worn with an appropriate style and last they make clothing look much better than a factory made english or ltalian shoo ever could. Vass lift you so much above the crowd, it make you 20 foot tall and a man of true style. The english shoos just make someone more smartly dressed instead of someone with abundant wow factor.
None-the-less, one english shoo that is delicate and has a stunning effect is the Anthony Cleverley shoo, that is a creation of true genius imo. Took 3 years to create that last, and probably the finest otr last ever made imo....pity it's a factory made shoe...lacks the warmth, BUT it is a grand old man.
