Re: Gaziano and Girling Shoes
I think a Tautz lapel is were the top of the notch is parallel to the floor, not angular like a conventional which is like this "<"
Look at the lapel cut on Grant's peak lapel

Personally from an aesthetic point of view I don't particular like it and think it's another example of a minor change to a detail entering into the canon of mens tailoring like it's some kind of great sartorial invention deserving of it own stylistic name forever immortalising it's "inventor"
Rant over...

Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

From a D&B report one should be able to work out the volume of what they sell. Sadly, I don't have access anymore.

Re: Gaziano and Girling Shoes
Considering they have a RTW model called the "Hove" which is the spitting image of the Dover, the iconic EG shoe, I don't think that IP issues are going to bedevil their bespoke creations. Their RTW shoes are mostly C&J made to a variety of different standards/grades depending on the shoe or boot. I have shoes I suspect to be benchgrade and boots which are handgrade in C&J terms.
