Carpe Diem, Augusta, ma+, Guidi, Garments and footwear..
Well Augustas are gone. Just one hour left on the Carpe Diems and the ma+s. All the action on the Augustas happened in the last few seconds. Very clever, but a few disappointed bidders who didn't bid high enough, or leave themselves time to re-submit their bids. If you're going to leave it 'til the last minute make sure you put the highest bid in!

Ok, all of the above footwear is gone but I have 3 more pairs, including 2 of my favorites, of which I must to say, I may need to vet potential buyers in order to make sure that they're going to the right home!
First up, aren't Augusta and they aren't ma+ but they have been favorites of mine for over 20 years, since my friend Maurizio Altieri was doing his internship with Chrome Hearts! Anyway give them a look because these are a rare piece of British fashion history and they took fucking great to boot!
Vintage Paul Smith Shell Cordovan Leather Boots, 42. (8)
I was asked for measurements for the Margielas and I've just posted them on the eBay listing. I would just point out that these are a Euro 43 / UK 9 and are pretty much TTS, unlike the Augustas etc.

Just a quick heads up: I'm listing a pair of vintage Yohji Yamamoto trainers this evening at around 8:30GMT. They are from the first season that Yohji collaborated with Adidas and predate Y-3 by at lease a year. Pretty collectable... They look pretty fucking dope too! ;)

Guys, I know that the Paul Smith boots need resoling but you can get that done for around £40 depending where you live. I know it's a pain in the ass but they are fucking great boots. If they weren't a fraction too small, I wouldn't be selling them, and that is the god's honest truth. I would genuinely take them over some of my Augustas and ma+s. Plus they have the history.
Here's a little bonus too, the heals never wear out as they have an integral steal tip. You don't find that much nowadays!
If it's the resoling that is putting you off looking at these shoes, I'll even get them resoled for you and then send them on. Obviously I would charge for that, so if you want me to do that, please contact me before bidding - Price £40 tbc (if I can get it done for less, I will)!

People keep asking if I ship outside the UK. I don't know if there is some issue with my eBay account and it's stating incorrect shipping info, but I will ship pretty much anywhere, so if you want a price on shipping, just PM me.

Only about 3 hours left on the footwear, including the Augustas and the Margiela reverse horse hide! There are quite a few people watching both so if you're going to bid at the last minute either make it a good one or leave time for a second try!
