May be able to hit this up and proxy for some people.

I am looking for some shannons or galways, but will get a selection of shoes for the rest of my five allowed purchases.

Thanks, you looking to do a MTO? Like pictured boot as is though probably would want haf sole and not sure about eyelets / speedhooks


Tempting...I considered it and discussed with Patrik, but decided I had enough short wings and went with Skoak's Shannon pre-order. Maybe later for me.

I want that boot for the sheer beauty. I just have no use for bals and I have 2 pair of bal shoes that I never wear.

I wear most of my balmoral boots but maybe it's just the type of industry we're in that lends to the frequency. My midnight/twilight Shannons are the ones that gets the least wear.

One more for Shannon VIII? ;)

That Shannon XIV looks great though!

There's a limit of 3 or 5 pairs per person - so difficult for anyone to Proxy. 

But deals at these places are real decent - I have seen subs and perfect
grade shoes for £295. Close to cost price!!!! 


Malford of London did a great job of proxying for everyone last year. 


Not sure why everyone's so hung up on the 5 pair limit; since there's nothing stopping one from making an initial 5-pair purchase, exiting, and rejoining the queue to re-enter again and purchase again. Just time consuming is all.

£295 is indeed a decent price, but pretty sure it's still pretty far from cost price and EG are still making good profits at that price point.

295£ is almost their wholesale price, their profit it's like they are selling them to a store.
