Gentlemen, Thinking of buying my first pair of SC! which model do you prefer 105 or the boots 401?
looking to wear them with jeans and chinos on the wekends?

I prefer boots generally but also like the look of the 105 full oxford brogue?

I wish I could post some picturers but dont have any for now, both shoes can be viewed on madetoorderparis website.

get the 401 in my opinion

I have the 105 Full Brogues which are nice and versatile but if I was looking for a pair to wear with Jeans and Chinos I would go with the 401 or the austerity brogue boot by St. Crispin. The 105 works better in my eyes with dress slacks or flannels.

Thank you gentlemen, I will also have to decide on which last suits me best. I wonder if St Crispin offer a repair service if needed once the sole starts to wear off?

I believe they offer a resole for $200 I think I read somewhere but don't quote me on that. I prefer the classic last to the chisled. I have a pair in both lasts. Good luck.

The 401 would look much better in the classic last imho.

Checked with Steve from Leffot at NYC just 2 weeks ago, it's about 120 euros, ~~ 160USD which from what I understand is much cheaper than other brands.

Classic last tree porn.

Also, I recently learned about a brand called Zonkey Boots which was cofounded by Michael Rollig, the founder of St Crispin's and Phillip Car's cousin. I like this pair of their shoe particularly.

You could see similarities of characters from St Crispin in some of their shoes but at a much more affordable price.

Zonkey Boots don't sell trees AFAIK

Thank you for letting me know, yes that is a much better price then some of the other brands. After a serious thought I went for the 105 just because IMHO for me the 401 had a bit too many colours going on with this particular model. I love the boot and will buy it but only if it is in one shade. I will post pictures as soon as I have the shoes.

120 for a resole is a great price, even if it only replaces the outsole. That's insane cheap for such a high end boot. Kind of encourages me to want to buy more..

Do they replace the whole outsole or only thefront part, excluding the pegged waist?
