Well my friends, the reason that I have had a long absence is due the fact that on Monday morning yours truly become a father to his first born child, little Mr. Shoe Snob Jr. As you can see he already has a pair of darby cap toes, with a nice heel counter and funky looking facing! On a serious note though, fatherhood is a true blessing and I am so glad to be finally experiencing it as there is nothing else better in the world. The only problem is that now I fear that my workload just became 10 times more severe (in a good way of course). That being, as I have been backed up in writing, you can imagine that I am now backed up in emails in and responding to comments. So please bare with me as I try to make sure that my little boy has a smooth transition into the world, while at the same time as playing catch up to all of you….

Thanks as always for all the support and enjoy the pictures below….

Sincerely,

Justin, “The Shoe Snob”
