Horween Color 8 Shell Cordovan
Regarding Search 2.0, the problem we were trying to solve was to start surfacing more of the best photos for each pair. The old version only showed the latest photo, so a lot of awesome pairs got missed unless you took the time to go in-and-out of each album. I pushed out an update this morning that should increase the variety in the photos, and also prioritize the more popular ones. I was wondering if folks could give it another test and let me know your reactions. Feel free to comment your search queries as well so I can use them to benchmark more tweaks we are doing.

Brian himself described the Townsman as a hybrid between the White’s Semi-Dress and the Alden Indy Boot. These are my two favorite iconic models, and I was itching for a moc toe boot. It was a no-brainer for me.
Brian measured my foot in person at his workshop in LA.
It was quite straightforward. I discussed I was looking for a shell cordovan boot in the aforementioned style. He produced a wonderful Horween Color 8 shell, informed me about the moc toe option, and we shook on it!
