Bentley Boots
There was a small article in today's Times about the shoes worn by the Bentley drivers.
Aparently they are specially hand made by a German cobbler Axel Himer, which involves 50 hours work, 3 fittings and 3 mock ups before the final version, each of the 6 drivers will take their own pair to Le Mans at £1,700 a pair ! Simon |

Apparently one of the other Brit drivers at Sebring was saying it is as we would say in the UK complete 'Cobblers' and they were just re-branded Alpinestars.
