It looks like I might be tumbling down another rabbit hole!

Just got my second pair from Oblum today.
Dark Green Longwing Bluchers in Argentinian crust leather.
Double sole with the tapered heel.

Had spoken to Oblum about this shoe for a while and it took some time to get the shape I had wanted. I had requested them for a more rounded shape similar to my earlier shoe. I just had to wait as they were busy with the festive season earlier. My shoes were ready for a fitting a couple of days ago following which I was keen on trying out either a dark green or navy blue colour. After having a chat with Tarun I went with the dark green. The fit and finish of this shoe is absolutely superb.

Posting an update on my Bridlen Derby pair that I had posted about earlier.

Due to an unfortunate mistake I had ordered the pair a half size large. Bridlen was very gracious in getting the shoes resized at no charge. The resizing was done with the kind help of their team who have been a pleasure to deal with. Unfortunately for me though, the shoe design had proportions that created a poor fit in the resized shoe. There was an overly boxy toe shape and a heel area that was too tall and resulted in heel slip. I had pretty much resigned myself to having a botched up pair of shoes.

In the meantime I had made a couple of shoes with Oblum and decided to ask Tarun if he would consider relasting the pair for me. This pretty much meant redoing the entire shoe. To my surprise Tarun was happy to do it and since they already had my measurements it was a matter of about 7 - 10 days before I got the shoes back. To say that I am pleased with the result is an understatement.

Leaving some pictures on here of my relasted Derbys ...
