I have four pairs of Church's "Custom" hand made - they are wonderful, but I seldom wear them here in MX.
Also, prior to moving last December, I finally trashed my first British hand made wingtip "brogues" I bought in 1962.

Wingtips are in. Dior Homme S/S 2006 features black/white wingtips, they're back in vogue now...fish them out the bin!

logos...Church's shoes are also widely available outside of the UK. I don't know of the best place to buy them here but a trip down jermyn street would not be a bad place to start. likewise, there are several good shoe stores in the city.

as for the resoling...i had mine done by a "good" shop. they did a very high quality job but unfortunately they cut the sole too tight around the upper and i lost that characteristic "shelf" around the side.
