As some readers have surely concluded from the Foster mentions this past week, shoemaker WS Foster is on tour in the United States last week and this one.

The company is showing new made to order models that are worth a look. For one thing, they're only available at the Jermyn Street store or on tour, which means that the well shod Foster customer isn't likely to see himself coming and going any time soon.

For another, this particular series of MTO shoes, made to Northampton's highest standards, is $757 a pair (£447) ex VAT and compares favorably to shoes retailing for $1,100.

Will I love the split toe Monkstrap in the top of the photo and the Suede derby. Are they coming to Los Angeles, How can a get the shoes? Please let me know.
Looks very promising and I am considering them based almost solely on your recommendation. Next time though. I had to cancel my appointment in L.A. in order to deal with some things at work.
Tony, they've been through LA already. They'll be back in March. Or, if you know your size, contact the store directly.
Oh my god I can't believe I missed this. G&G, EG, St. Crispin have all been through town recently and I saw them all. Will, you've got to post this info as you know it - I'm one day late here in New York!
