    Hilditch and Key / Turnbull and Asser

    A lot of what's said about these two brands here seems to be a bit out of date, Jermyn St is changing and since I have bought RTW from both in the 2014 winter sales, and both have been worn, washed and worn again, here's my view. I don't buy double cuffs because my pirate days are over and my...

    I will go to my grave having never worn a tassel loafer.

    I hope you'll still be ok, but they're still not open. Friday 12th seems to be the latest estimate. I'm not sure why they're doing this, the old set up looked fine to me, some carpet, some wooden shelves with shoes on. I didn't see much to improve on there. I hope they're not going all G&G, with...

    then it's going to have to be olive green! ok, maybe not. can't go wrong with dark oak or black.

    why not a burgundy inverness? or something burgundy. burgundy chelsea I think won't work. http://www.skoaktiebolaget.se/products/edward-green-inverness-in-burgundy I think that's a really great shoe.

    "unboring boring"! exactly. looks like a nice light pair too, and will only get more unboring. nice score.

    interesting. 2500 is expensive though, once we get into that region I'd just go the whole hog and get traditional full bespoke.

    thankyou. it seems clear there that the 808 toe box is indeed a bit roomier, but the 888 angles around the vamp to have a higher instep and a higher heel cup- it's a more shapely last whereas the 808 is a bit blobby. The 888 definately has a hint of Gaziano about it. I prefer the look of the...

    EG can be so frustrating sometimes...if their shoes weren't so good I swear, I'd just buy something else! Thanks though, I'll ask them what's possible when they open again. I don't want to MTO a last that I can't try first though. I thought TD had been stopped?

    dredging up old posts, this site: http://www.strasburgo.co.jp/blog/edwardgreen/2013/03/29/808888.html seems to suggest that the 808 is a bit narrower at least on the heel, and a bit lower almost everywhere. My japanese is a bit rusty however. I'm a bit bemused as I've spent hours (or so it...

    multicoloured chelseas. I know, boring chelseas. But the green one is midford. burgundy next. since you have to have a rotation, make it a rotation of colour too.

    Jermyn st is the only EG outlet in London. They sell Lobbs etc in Harrods and Selfrdges, but no fun going there in december, and no reason to really. Jermyn st will be like an oasis of calm. But the shop isn't huge, and if you are after one style only would be worth an email beforehand, just to...

    thankyou! now I'm getting why all the Zug fever. it looks very interesting, and unique for a high-end boot maker. I gues my searching technique fell short, all I could find was stuff about storing leather in chocolate vats. looking forward to lots of pics of people's new Zug boots. This kind of...

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    I've got to ask, what exactly is Zug? not in general, but as it applies to EG. is it something only MTO, an embossed thicker leather, like CC only thicker. or is there something else? Shoe makers never really describe properly what their leathers are. EG's website is particulary uninformative...
