Re: Georg Materna, shoemaker, Vienna,

The last one - the brown grained brogue - looks amazing. I like the idea of the screws in the heel and toe pieces. No need to rip things out with pincers, which must subject the rest of the shoe to stress. How much, Fritzl?

Re: Georg Materna, shoemaker, Vienna,

I don't understand the appeal of pegged soles vs. sewn. Otherwise, nice shoes. I'd take the last pair without the canted heel and horrible sounding, uncomfortable, and accident inducing heel plate and completely in pebble grain to wear with jeans.

However, at that price you can get full custom from Kielman.

Re: Georg Materna, shoemaker, Vienna,

Interesting. I can imagine that pegging a sole takes only a small fraction of the time and skills needed to sew it by hand. Perhaps pegs are looked down upon by makers who sew their soles exclusively because pegs are so much more simple to make and require less developed skills, even though they might be just as durable?

In my experience, with sewn soles, the time when a resoling is needed is determined by the actual sole wearing out, not by failure of the stitches, so I highly doubt that pegs would bring any improvement in durability.

lt's great that these shoos are being made available to English speaking folks. Good job in organising it Fritzl, bravo old son.
