Richelieux aus Kalbsleder in Braun

The glazed calf leather has this subtle sheen that catches light without looking shiny, and the leather sole feels sturdy but not stiff. I've worn them three days straight and the smooth leather lining hasn't rubbed once.

Wore these to a wedding right out of the box and got zero break-in blisters, which never happens with leather soles. The decorative studs under the sole give a little grip without looking chunky, and the smooth leather lining keeps my feet from sliding around. The lace-up shape runs a touch narrow,

Wore these to a gallery opening and got three compliments before I even sat down. The leather lining is what sold me, no break-in blisters at all, and the little studs under the sole give a nice click on hard floors.
