Description: The A-List Celebrity / Hedge Fund Mgr RARE $14,000 TOM FORD Alligator Double Monk Strap Shoes, Made In Italy, Unreal Details, Size 11 All TOM FORD is rare, but every now and then he takes things stratospheric to the realm of only A-List celebs and Hedge Fund manager levels of disposable income like these coveted shoes. Guys, we all know the first thing women look at / judge you by is your shoes. Take the money you’d invest in another watch and invest it on these, trust me, you’ll thank me later! You can easily keep replacing the custom protective soles to make these last for a long time. I was lucky to get these from a stylist used in a celebrity shoot, but she told me these were around $14K, which lines up with the price reference below and in photos. Tom used to use these real exotic skins in his early collections (confirmed by my cobbler with over 30 years experience in Malibu servicing elite shoes from around the world; these are the best quality from the premium smooth underbelly). I have both the newer “croc effect” ones and other real ones, and there’s just no comparison (see photos). The prices on these were insane:– black TF alligator boots were over $16K (see GQ Alex Rodriguez article and Tim McGraw in photos)– burnished alligator boots were over $19K before tax (see photo)– the less complex loafers were $15-$12K before tax (see photo)– even the sneakers were $9K before tax (see photo) Tom has said he loves designing in black because you are forced to the very essence of the piece – the silhouette, the material and most of all, the texture. Texture is what makes these pieces stand out on dates and at night with the lighting, and nothing telegraphs like alligator / crocodile (see extensive photos). I love that it’s still understated, but refined, and everyone knows the elite price it commands. These Tom Ford shoes are the height of luxury. These are an absolute masterpiece commanding attention without screaming. Tom’s stunning attention to detail is evident throughout. These are guaranteed to attract attention and compliments every time you sit down anywhere. Mr Tom Ford’s design philosophy is simple: don’t settle for anything less than perfection. And that maxim applies as much to a plain cotton T-shirt as it does a wool barathea tuxedo with all the trimmings. Achieving perfection, of course, is harder than it looks. “Menswear is a detail-driven business” —Tom Ford Tom Ford shoes are just incredibly sexy – it’s what Tom is famous for! Tom got his degree in architecture from Parsons and notes that his shoes are like architecture – they can stand on their own, you have to get the proportions just right, the balance of the heel to the toe, the slope, etc. A favorite anecdote Tom shared was being a child around age 4 having gotten a new pair of shoes and obsessing about the shape of the toe being “wrong” by a couple millimeters. He said “perfectionism is almost an illness with me”, but it’s why he’s the ultimate designer for me and why I’ve upgraded nearly my entire wardrobe to his line. I’ve been fortunate to have owned and tried most all the elite brands and have decided I want to live in Tom Ford. These have very minimal wear (you can see from the heels) and only selling due to my extensive collection. I invested extra in having a master cobbler with over 30 years experience add protection so they will last longer and you can easily keep these going for many years to come just replacing this. He even followed the natural fiddleback of the design; a perfectionist artisan touch that would make Tom proud. Shoes only, no box, but comes with the Tom Ford dust bags.
