Do these links go with the Vass chic?

It kind of evokes that whole 1956 thing aportnoy was speaking about.

Gentlemen,
two things:
1) I don't disagree with Vass's attempt (or the Vass agents' attempt) to limit distribution however they see fit.
2) I don't think it's sporting (or right) to attack a man's family. I don't mean to get all righteous, but I'd just
ask y'all to think about that.
Yours in the struggle,
Horace
Truely Horace, if they are stupid enough to turn up to a sartorial flatulence event and have photos taken of themselves turned out in clothing/shoos common of a street begger, they deserve all they get.
Compelling bits of intrigue; it's Byzantine in its ramifications and petty in nature:

Rarely does one see a brand implode like Vass has over the last few days. Hopefully for those folks it all stabilizes but I am fascinated that the outrage continues.
Those shoes are ugly anyway. If people want to spend $1400 a pair so they can look like theyre doing the Monster Mash, more power to 'em I say.
I might still try a pair of them even with all the hub bub surrounding them recently.
If one could get them from the German channels, for $500 or so, I suppose the U-last is worth trying out.
This topic has alot of life in it yet. l've still got alot of info that needs to be posted here.
l've got some renovations going on at the moment, but when that ends, l will be trying to order a U last Vass oxford (for starters). lf it doesn't fit and returns are not allowed, i'll just sell it on ebay.
Been having incredible Vass dreams lately (3 or 4 Vass dreams a week). l'm extremely excited about the F, U and P2 Vass lasts.
l would like to get a couple of Vass Sandals (bottom pic in link) to wear in really hot weather (gasp....). Peasant Sandals are very popular in Oz but l haven't been able to find a quality sandle over here.

Yeah, A Harris has helped me out to with Vass sizing. He is not a greedy bloke. Even at $1,200, Vass seems reasonably priced for the quality. He has worked hard for 3 years to promote the Vass name and deserves to be rewarded for his work. He could have easily sold ltalian shoos and made more money but he chose a labour of love, ie Vass. Vass owes Andrew and Gabor big time.
