I also thought some of you may be interested in seeing how may Carmina Direct MTO Navy Shell Single Monk looked about about 15 wears. I sent them off to B. Nelson to get sunken toe taps installed and they look great.

What's the typical delivery time to North America from SB? I'm talking about shoes they have in stock, not MTO.

I think this is the same one I posted yesterday. Needless to say I like it.

As was mentioned by someone else in this thread I too would prefer if the string attached to the tassels was hidden in a way similar to these.

Looks like this will be the case from the prospectus photo below, but I've seen carmina tassels that are strung boat shoe style, such as the ones at the bottom. Which one are we aiming for?

^ Based on the photo, I, too, would presume that the laces would be "hidden," but I'd also appreciate confirmation of that before any money gets thrown down.

Leeves - I really want a pair of the suede loafers, just can't decide what color. When is estimated arrival and last? Thanks.

We have this model inbound in Snuff, Brown, Loden Green, Navy (all suede, all leather soles).

Because it rains so much of the year where I live that even if it isn't raining heavily it might be drizzling, and if it's not drizzling the ground is likely wet, and I don't want to rapidly wear down leather soles by getting them damp. And I already have several pairs of leather-soled shoes that I can only wear during a few months of the summer. Does this not make sense to anybody but me?

We're hoping for an early March delivery on the String Loafers. They will all be on the Uetam last. More info here: http://www.skoaktiebolaget.se/store#orderinfo

If it makes sense to you, go with it.
