Hi Guys,

As far as I am aware the Crockett & Jones 'Malton' is meant to always have the medallion to the toe. So, when I had the chance to pick up this 'Malton' without the medallion - I thought it might be interesting to see which shoe was favoured.

Crockett & Jones "Malton" (360 last) Mahogany

and without the medallion

So....which should C & J be selling as the 'Malton' ?

Regards,

Graham

I like that medallion style, though I think I actually prefer the version of this shoe without the medallion.

I usually like medallions but in this case I like it without.

thanks. The 360 seems like a pointier version of the 341. I like.

Nice medallion, but I also prefer this shoe as a punch cap without it. The seam edges seem to miss the gimping that I usually associate with a semi brogue w/ medallion.

I like them both so much that I couldn't even vote.
