Anyone in the group have both the Milton and Hartland?

I am need of a light brown chukka and am debating between these two.

Both appear unlined, one leather soled, the other rubber.

The Milton actually looks like a finer grade of suede.

Any feedback appreciated.

It could be the stitching (which is purely decorative and does not join two pieces of leather) but it is more likely to be the lasting which is a bit off. Short of taking the right shoe apart and re-lasting it, there isn't any quick fix. Once the shoes need new soles and go back to the factory, you can ask the C&J people to pay particular attention to the problem.
Only passing frogs will notice the problem!

Thanks, that makes sense, as the right shoe tilts sideways when standing upright. Does this imply removing the soles and shaping the uppers all over again with a last? If so, it seems like a rather complicated procedure, any idea how much this would cost?

Some of the Hartland models will be included in the sale that starts at the end of the week. I know the mushroom and charcoal models are included.

Does anyone know if these are indeed made by CJ (some old made in England shell cordovan for Brooks Brothers, not Alden ones)

according to this
http://www.styleforum.net/t/160709/sold-brooks-brothers-by-churchs-shell-cordovan-wingtips-12-5-c-d

might be Church

So if it's CJ anyone knew what last it might be?

Seems like similar stock to what they had before; I remember seeing the Tavistock Austerity during the last sale.

PSA: I have two nearly new C&J shoes for Cleverley on eBay. These are to Handgrade standard, maybe a little higher in terms of the antiquing.
