Sorry to hijack the thread, but I have a similar probelm with a pair of Crackows that I have been using for the past 400 years and just can't seem to let go of, but are looking a bit tired anyway. He's me at the works do recenly with my last pair, but I'd really like some in brown as black is a bit formal.
I've tied the usual places like Bensons and Clarks, and can't seem to find any in stock.
