I'm interested in a couple of these - the Oakham (provided it's a oak bark sole) or the Wigmore (is that an oak bark sole?). Can't stretch to both.

I'm an 11F, which may not help all that much at the moment.

Can I just check the prices in SEK if we were to get one or other over the line?


We would have to reach 6 in the same width before another width can be ordered.

No, I ordered mine in chestnut (with Christmas red lining for kicks!). Skoak says four months for EG MTOs but like you, I am setting my expectations for 6 months.

I thought about going for the dark brown Utah like the Kentmere, but figured I had less overlap with the chestnut. Both are great as Utah was my first choice. Later (??), I might consider CC or a two-tone Galway.


I thought gold and chestnut Utah were the same color. Regardless I know what you are talking about though (like Leffot's 82 last model) and that is what I was thinking of. Should be beautiful.
Yes, Gold and Chestnut is the same in Utah.

Thanks for the clarification, guys. I think I prefer the sound of "chestnut" to gold. I can just hear someone saying, "Oh, him? He wears gold boots."

I hear you.  You don't want that.

On the rare occasion I have been asked what color my shoes/boots are; my answer is always broad like brown or burgundy. I never specify for fear of being ridiculed. LMAO.

Dear Gentlemen,
I would like to gauge interest for a Carmina split toe derby GMTO model 80189 as below:


in either plain calf or hatchgrain.
Colour could be dark burgundy (as in the picture above), burnished brown or dark brown.
I would prefer a single leather sole but also Tomir is acceptable for me.
Last is going to be Soller or Rain or any other wide/high instep compliant last.

Thanks goes to @Leaves for his advice on this makeup

Do you have an example of what the burnished brown looks like?
