rancourt just released a new green shell 4 eyelet ranger mocs. looks pretty interesting.
link to more pics on their site


Very nice looking shoe. The soles are the honey colored Lactae Hevea, and I believe this is the first time this color has been mentioned, but the navy shell chukkas I posted above were also, I believe, on this sole.

It sure would be nice to have a complete list of all the options available at Rancourt!

ya I think i read somewhere that Kyle is looking to get a MTO system to go on their website, but there's no time frame.

the #8 cxl looks so good. I can't wait to get my MTO to come in!! :slayer:

I'm sure that setting up an MTO system online is a mighty task but, at this point, even just a spreadsheet listing the various options would be really helpful.

What MTO makeup did you go with? I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I want.

mine is very similar to the #8 ranger moc that just posted today, but mine is #8 cxl with white eye-lets and white stitching, orange lining, and dove-tail heel tap.I am looking at something a little more business casual so i went with the tempest sole.

I guess if you can draw some ideas down on a paper and contact Kyle then he can probably let you know what they have that would best suit ur needs.

they have a pretty wide range of color leather. green, blue, orange, brown, #8, etc...I bet there are more if you have time to dig it out from Kyle.

you can also choose different eye-lets and stitching style. i know some ppl like the baseball stitching. I probably will get one with those baseball stitching in the future.

if they shipped out today I should be getting it tmrw.

Excellent! Where did you find these pics?

And, yes, those navy shell ranger mocs are hot. Like the white stitching and large white eyelets. Are those oversized eyelets? Are those what you selected for your rangers? And, do you know what mid and outer soles are on the navy ranger mocs.

these are on rancourt's twitter page.

i think the outer sole is just the regular leather sole, but I m not positive tho.

no idea what the midsole is.

^I believe navy shell ranger moc was a MTO to Japanese customer. But you can always have them MTO just for you.

Great looking shoe. I have been asking that same question here and there, and the general and overwhelming response has been "no". I'll pass along one of the responses I've gotten to you, "why don't you try them and let us know".
