I could probably have done with a slightly lighter shade!Alan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01373566207194936501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133661363979591460.post-42112384469372818472014-07-08T21:45:51.547-07:002014-07-08T21:45:51.547-07:00I agree they look great just one thing im not sure...I agree they look great just one thing im not sure about is the leather straps.
