wessex and the NST

wessex over at AAAT has done what I've always wanted to do. He has provided us with a side-by-side of the Alden cordovan Norwegian Split Toe on the Aberdeen and Barrie lasts.I'm pretty sure that the Aberdeen is on the left. Many over at AAAT prefer the barrie for this shoe but I'd have to go for the Aberdeen myself. No question about it.

wessex is in the enviable position of having to actually choose. We'll see what he does.

Larsd4 on AAAT: "The Aberdeen is the good-looking brother who hangs out at the country club and excels at tennis and golf. The Barrie is the stodgy brother who works tirelessly on the family business and believes sacrifice builds character."

If this is true, then put me down for the Aberdeen last.

That's funny. Must have been watching Sabrina too much. The NST would not be my first choice for stodgy. Might be for good-looking though.
