Meermin Mallorca Shoes

The employee i worked with sized me perfectly, although I was able to go into the store which obviously helps. I don't know if this is what you were asking.

I was asking about customers who emailed them and provided measurements, then received a size suggestion from them. Just wondering how it turned out if you followed their suggestion.

Let's put all the recent burgundy shell comparison pics on one place!

a comparison of burgundy shell


L to R: Meermin Plain toe blucher, Allen Edmonds PTB, Alden #8 Chukka

So, Calikid: it looks from these photos that the burgundy is between your AE and #8 (maybe a little browner?), is that how it looks to your unmediated eyes?

Definintely, not as red as AE, not as purple as #8 and softer than both of them with maybe a hint of brown. I think with some wear and some heavy duty horsehair brushing they will develop a really nice patina. I really like them.

This is an Austerity by Meermin on the Olfe last.......

Awesome. I was trying to figure out two pairs to MTO from them at the same time, and now I know what I want the second one made out of! Thanks.

I received a similar email, though the form stated it was an "IMPORTER ID INPUT RECORD." It sounds very sketchy, but it seems to be standard practice according to Meermin and I filled out the form and faxed it to them.

Yeah, it is legit, but it doesn't make it right
