I have four pairs coming on Thursday..I will post pics.

C&J Lowndes
Sutor Monk Strap
Tods loafers
Paul Stuart boots

Some of these may have already been posted (I'm only on page 248 of this thread and desperately trying to catch up), but I got some snaps at the Edward Green trunk show at Leffot this weekend. (There's more about that at this thread which seems to have veered all over the place.)

I've got three pairs on order and I can't wait to show them off.

When I first started on this forum (approx 18 months ago), I had just one pair of battered trainers (included for historical purposes). I literally lived in an old pair of tracksuit bottoms and a couple of outdoor/camping type shirts. That really was it. Viewing some 2002 Christmas pics, it dawned on me that I was still wearing exactly the same clothing, as in the pics.

That was my wakeup call... Back Row (from left): RM Williams Comfort Craftsman in black yearling, RM Williams Murray Boat Shoe in chestnut kangaroo, RM Williams Comfort Craftsman in whiskey yearling. Front Row (from left): John Lobb Citty 2 in dark brown, museum calf, my trusty trainers, C & J Connaught in black calf. My next purchase will be a pair of RM Williams Comfort Craftsman in claret.

Wow, the Connaught appears much sleeker than I would have thought. Is that a Gomez last? Nice collection.

I took photos of my Kurt Geiger EG Chelseas, which arrived very recently. Christmas came early!!!

I blew my C&J budget on these, but it was worth it!

Congrats Geoff!

Thanks! I feel like I finally arrived!

Is that C&J Connaught exactly the same as the one I can order via PLAL?

Spatlese · Oct 22, 2008

^ Congrats. I really like mine (in wine) too. Being my first exposure to EG, I am sorely tempted now to explore the wallet-busting worlds of the 82 and 888.....
