Carmina's closed this week, but I've already got an email in to them for status. I'm meeting with them in person next week as well, so I'll definitely get that sorted. I imagine that they'll be in the next delivery - along with the Grey Suede Steinbecks that are still outstanding. We'll definitely offer you guys a discount on the balance payment because they slipped into the next season.

Thanks - Does this mean the Chocolate Jodhpur's won't be here for another 2 shipments?

On a happier note

the new shipment has some sweet stuff!

Thanks for all the work mike!

Any chance that you would consider doing the Jumper boot style that NYI has been rocking hard in Ruby shell? I would be all over that.

Mike, any thought re: Ruby Jumper boot?

Is there interest in doing something like a plain toe pebble grain shoe?

I would love a nice 3 eyelet derby on either the rain or the simpson. In either caramel or brown calfskin. I guess that's kind of boring, but I'd love a shoe like that in my rotation. It seems to me that it would be really versatile.

I'm totally sold on the pythons, as soon as I get confirmation that they can be shipped direct from carmina I'll be signing up. Heading to skoab today, hopefully I can try out the queens and rain lasts. Didn't think I'd be ordering any more shoes for a while, but these pics are kinda twisting my arm. shog[1].gif

Check out wj4s pics from a few pages back. They are definitely more pulloffable than one might think.

I was hoping for the pebblegrain to be more pronounced like this:

Not sure if Carmina offers such style.

^ Aren't those Spoo's G&G stingrays?

I've seen the Thompson in person, and the pebblegrain is pretty pronounced! Not trying to sell you on it, just my impression. I'm a scotch grain kind of person myself, anyway.

I saw the Thompson in person last week. The grain is quite pronounced. I liked them quite a bit in the store (they're more striking than they appear online). Also not trying to sell anyone on them, just a point of information.
