You just flat out shouldn’t be going to one of the chains. You are almost never going to get what you want, and you sure as hell won’t find any consistency at those places. I think you can find a good barber for $20-$30. A nice cut and style at a salon, $30 and up. Also depends on what city you’re in.

I’m a huge fan of them as well. Unfortunately, I’ve struck out on finding that exact pair. Here are the most similar versions I’ve come across so far: http://www.fransboonestore.com/alden-x-frans-boone-cigar-cordovan-longwing (Alden Cigar Cordovan Longwing Blucher w/ Antique Edge, also usually in stock here: http://tinyurl.com/6x45qte) And a less expensive alternative: http://www.florsheim.com/shop/style/12071-609.html
