Speaking of the GMTO. I have received votes for about half the PMs I sent out so far. Here is where we stand as of now:

Dover on 202, double leather: 3 votes
Dover on 202, HAF: 1 vote
Dover on 606, double leather: 1 vote
Nevis on 606, Dainite: 1 vote


Ok, Dover on the 202, double leather it is. I hope this is not a deal breaker for anyone who voted for H/AF or 606 (I think I was the only one for 606). We'll do this as a pre-order, so we'll only ask for a 25% pre-order deposit. Depending on how many single MTOs we do in Brandy Willow, we're looking at limited run of something like 6-8 pairs. Please see this post in our affiliate thread for more details about this project. We'll continue the Willow Calf discussion there if that's ok with everyone.

Note that the Brown Willow (5 spots) are already booked.

I don't mind the storm welt with the texture of the leather but could go either way. The chestnut version Roger posted absolutely the flat welt

Meh. It's like a Galway that wanted to be a Shannon. Not saying it's not awesome (it's a Galways) but it packs less awesome than it could and should pack.

Nice way to put it.

The least appealing Galway I've seen to this point.


I have handled a Dover in dark brown Delapre. IMO, dark brown Delapre is underwhelming, both in pictures and in person. And I like dark brown footwear .....

Galway can't be the Shannon. I'm probably the only one here who prefers Shannons over Galways (if there was ever a choice between the 2).

I think I'm going to rock some Shannons tomorrow.
. Meant no disrespect to the Shannon - love em (don't have any yet). Meant only that if you are going to go with such a conservative color why not do a full on dress boot.
