I've been contributing to this thread since the get-go, and I simply illustrate shoes that are made in the hand-made tradition - normally leather, but also the more avant garde styles also. Nobody doubts that I actually do like (very) traditional brogues, but I highlight what other shoemakers are turning to as well. This does not seem to be popular with everyone, and many of the shoes I bring attention to, I would never wear. Yet, since its all still a part of the traditional of (nearly) old school cobblery, I don't see the harm.
Like with film photography, I want to see some old traditions kept alive.
