They have arch support fitted decently to my feet. Everything is fit properly to my feet. Wow - and they are beautiful. The leather is rich looking, extremely shiny. The soles are so thick.
Alfonso's buddy that was hanging out in the shop drinking a beer shook my hand when I left but Alfonso said: "Dame un beso" (give me a kiss) which is as you all probably know, the normal mode of greeting anyone you are acquainted with. He told me he's just received a letter from New York, asking him to come and be paid what he feels is alot of money, to teach shoemaking (to measure). He has got to be in his 70s, and says he doesn't really feel like leaving his family to go do that. I told him I have questions for him sometime, about shoemaking, as I've been thinking about learning for a long time. he told me to come any afternoon I feel like it, bring a coffee, and sit and watch.
