We've taken this sartorial favorite and refined it with a hand sewn heel, 4 eyelets, Double Swan Neck stitching, and a beveled rubber sole. A beautiful intersection of artistry and utility. Levi started as a fellow hobbyist honing his proficiency in shines and patinas leading up to the first U. S. Shoe Shine Championship
