Balmoral Boot Black Scotchgrain
Balmoral Boot Cognac Shell
Balmoral Boot Chocolate Calf/Suede
Python Austerity Brogue
Hopefully we'll get them by next Friday - if not it will be right the in beginning of the following week. Can't wait to see how all of these made up!
The only outstanding early makeup is the Navy Shell Double Monk. I've asked for status on that - I'll let you guys know as soon as I have word on it.
2. I'll get that Alcudia-last Navy calfskin bal order going tomorrow. We're good to go on that with the leather.
3. Balmoral Austerity boots makeups are going to be awesome. I'm waiting on word for Navy Shell. Now, if this was going to be delivered in Feb-March, would you guys still want some shell cordovan options for then? I might be able to wrangle some Ruby as well.

 

Thats awesome news, Mike! I can't wait to see with those Austerity boots are gonna look like. Any word on the suede/calf Jodhpur order?

Quick question regarding Carmina lasted trees.


Are they whole sizes only?

My MTO blue shell austerity oxford came with a whole size pair of lasted trees, even though the shoes themselves are 1/2 size larger.

Get out of my head, sir. You're stealing all of my ideas.

I hope I stop running out of ideas.  Last year I thought Allen Edmonds was the pinnacle of shoes.  This year I've already gotten EGs, C&Js and Carmina Bal Boots from Skoaktiebolaget and I'm in on the Navy Adelaide and Bal Austerity Brouge Boot. 

 

Other members warned me when I joined SF ...

Mike,

 

For the Navy Adelaide... would it be possible to commission navy calfskin Belts from Carmina to go along with the preorder?

 

Thanks

We'll definitely offer some calf options. I think that burgundy would be really boss.

Yes, they only run in whole sizes. When customers order a half size shoe, we ship the trees that are a half size down.

Yes and no. At the moment, Carmina doesn't offer navy leather belts.

BUT - we've had a ton of demand for matching belts. In the next three weeks or so, I'm going to launch an in-house, made in USA collection of dress belts. They're going to jive perfectly with our carmina calfskin offerings and retail at $85. We'll definitely have a navy belt. It's tough to say if it will be an exact match, but it will surely be close. The belts are really solid, and you'll be able to opt for either gold tone or silver tone buckles.

Apologies for the delay on that - it took a little bit, but we filled all of the slots and the Suede/Calf Jodphur is going into work. Thanks!

Amazing!!

Count me in for the navy bal on the Alcudia last!!!

As long as it's not a contrasting edging....needs to be dark.

Thanks!

^ For the navy bal, it seems like a matching/dark edge would be best.

 

However! A burgundy or dark green calf version seems like a natural fit for a lighter/antiqued/brown edgetrim...

 

Dark green calf, anyone?
