Tricker's MTO - Forum group buy - Page 42

Any objections to the design? Any objections to a dainite sole? Anyone else want in?

Okay this group order is definitely going ahead for those who want a fitting 5.. The deadline to register interest is tonight US time as I,m going to send the details off to Richard tomorrow morning early European time. Those who register interest will receive PMs tomorrow detailing where to send your shoe size, details, £100 deposit tomorrow early morning as well.

Below, we have the basically final summary since there have been no objections


Summary
Black Scotch grain / black calf shoe
4444 last
Natural barbour welt
Red lining
/dainite sole
Black pull tab

Interest:
Fitting 5:
Feji
Mchigan
Slonukhi58
Oven 1969
Blackmaged

Fitting 6:
Badeggcat
Magdaddy
Knucks

We can also do a run of fitting six shoes if there a THREE more people interested.

not the biggest fan of the black pull tab, but if the majority of the others definitely want it then it's not a deal-breaker.

are we going ahead with blind eyelets?

EDIT: also, is there overwhelming interest for 4444 last? i've only messed around with 4497 but i'm worried that 4444 would be a bit too wide and clunky

EDIT2: decided that the black pull tab is really bugging me, just seems like a frivolous add-on with no real function

Richard has said that as soon as the orders are confirmed that it will go ahead.

If, however, you have not yet expressed interest, don't worry, because the order will be OPEN for another couple of months until the final confirmation with the factory later in July. So if you're on the fence there is still time to get in on this, however, for e purpose of actuallu gettng the order throughh, un,ess there is overwhelming dissent, I think we should consider the style and model finalised.

Thank you, Marcellionheart, for doing all the work.

Even though I am out for now, I too, would like to thank you, Marcellionheart for your time.  

 

Marc.

anything new we can do for fall/winter ?

Wondering if a longwing galosh boot in a shorter chukka height configuration is a possibility? Something like this.

You mean in stubby Stow height?

^^ Yes. Stubby Stow height but longwing galosh pattern. In other words, a stubby longwing galosh.

Beautiful boots by the way.

Hi guys. Any chance to arrange a group order of Tricker's Eaton Coffee Burnished Calf?

you can check shoehealer, Richard might have some stocks left

Thanks bibs. I talked to Richard last week but unfortunately nothing in stock (I wear 12...) and no orders planned for this model.

Guys, I'm trying to get a group MTO with Richard for a chukka with a toe medallion in green shell.

I'm thinking--

W2298 last
Dark brown Barbour welt
Black Dainite sole? (not married to this)
Blind eyelets
Calf lining--looks like colors available are Natural, Dark Green, Vintage Green, Dark Brown, Navy Blue, Black, Orange or Red.
Pull tab?

Richard said we should be looking at the end of October hopefully.

Thanks!

The green shell is the dark green shown here ?
