Thought it might be timely to call attention to two models of Gaziano & Girling shoes that will be in stock at the ASW store in the not too distant future.
The ASW City Shoe will be a new run of the semi-formal oxford ASW introduced two years ago. It was no surprise that roughly half of the shoes made at that time were delivered to diplomatic addresses in the U.S. and Europe as the City Shoe is highly compatible with semi-formal and formal day wear. It also looks great with a blazer and gray flannels. 
Near the opposite end of the formality spectrum is the Suitable Slip-on, which we also pioneered that year. In fox suede, it looks stylish with casual suits and odd jackets and is a great shoe for air travel.
Each model is $1,100 for a pair, including metal toe taps and lasted mahogany shoe trees (there is no tax or shipping charged for deliveries in the United States). A small deposit holds a pair and most customers will experience just a fraction of the wait time required for conventional made to order shoes. Interested parties should email.

Will,
The Suitable slip-on would be in my list if my budget would allow them... alas, it's not possible. Any suggestions for a similar shoe for say $400-$500?
Is the size one takes for The Suitable Slip-on the same for lace ups and monks?
Yes JC, the fit is the same.
Hemanth, aside from the City Shoe I have only seen this style bespoke.
Although the narrower G&G lasts are not fitting my feet very well subjectively, I think this is a great creative yet balanced shoe. Top score, Will!
Love the Suitable City Shoe. What a combination of understated elegance, tradition, and panache. Like Hemanth, don't love the price--but so it goes. Someday, someday . . . .
