I think we have four for this MTO. I sent out a PM to the other 3 parties interested. Erskine Hawkins, I didn't include you as they can only make MTO's virtually the same, which means they can't make some on the Rain and some on the Simpson. I do have some Carmina Rand Double Monks on Rain (Edit: It's actually Inca but it's nearly the same thing I hear, except the toe box is higher) that fit great. They're a 10.5UK. I have some Uetam loafers coming hopefully at the beginning of next week, which fits similar to the Simpson. I sized half a size up from the posts I read. I'll be adjusting the fit of my MTO based on how the Uetam fits. My loafers shipped to the US were $453.14 after the conversion. About $45 of that was shipping and that's after the VAT discount (20% deducted for non-EU residence). The Adelaides are the same price. So.. Carmina Burgundy Adelaide, more like deep red (GREAT color) Flat laces Simpson Last 3400 SEK (2720 ex VAT, approx $420) Shipping 300SEK ($45ish USA) I won't post about it much longer, don't want to spam the thread. But if you post or PM that you're interested, that'd be great. Edit: We are able to proceed with the order with the number we have. I am collecting buyer information now. Speak now or forever hold your peace.. I will need your paypal email address, delivery address and UK Simpson Size. PM me with all that if you are sure you want in.

Could I still get in on this or is it too late?

I caught the Carmina bug.

After purchasing my first pair in Paris, I have since increased my collection by 200%. Picked up a pair of Forest black captoes and this pair of Soller Shell Cordovan boots. I'll try to take better photos later, but these were from their debut yesterday.

Great boots! I can totally relate to catching the bug...my 11th pair is on the way soon.

...and I wear them all.

I took about 20 pics in the Barcelona store. Including about 25 different pairs of shell. Also spotted a bunch of croc, python and suede. I think the ladies python bal boot and the ladies python blazer win the medal. Steeze with a capital S.

Tempted by the boot on the left.

Already have 2 other pairs of black boots including a pair of black shell aldens but I'm really enjoying the shape and proportions of the Carmina.

Retials for 600 euro but only 14% vat deduction compared to the 18 I'm accustomed to. I do save 35 euro on shipping though...
