Frankenstitch boot was scheduled to arrive today. Left the office a little early (not sure if I needed to sign). Past 8 pm here no box. The horror, the tragedy, the disappointment

It was odd as I had to sign for a Skoaktiebolaget delivery recently the first one ever, however the one after that I didn't have to sign for. Both were delivered via USPS. You should be able to check the tracking number to see if a delivery was attempted and I would expect a notice at the door as well.

Here ya go - looks like it's the Holland & Holland makeup or something similar. Quite stoked to get them.

The Carmina burgundy shell is pretty sick yea, it can do brown or even ravello tones in various shades of sunlight.

I just noticed there's a tiny bit of the leather lining fraying at the vamp V-shaped cutouts on both boots tho - should I worry much? Looks like it's already quite protected by the stitching so there shouldn't be much chance of it spreading further.

Though unfortunate, it shouldn't be a problem in the long run. But feel free to contact us if you experience any problems after some wear.
The Enzo Bonafe jodhpur boots came in today. The 804 last seems to fit a bit larger than the 946 last, but it should be fine with some thicker socks. Really like the burgundy color with the purple cast. @Leaves , do you know what type of rubber sole it has? It looks pretty good. Hopefully it's fairly durable.

Some indoor pics:






Nice pics, glad to hear you like 'em! The sole is called "Millerighe", which means "a thousand lines". Despite being a more sleek type of rubber sole, it's still fairly thick.

Looking good man, I got them too and they seem to fit so I will keep them. Man Bonafe sizing is all over the place I ordered Jodhpur on 808 last in size 10 and Jumper on 363 MOD last in size 11. 804 last in size 10 is longer than 363 last in size 11. Bonafe 363 last is real challenge. I will post comparison shot between these two lasts tonight.

Now @Leaves or @Skoaktiebolaget does Bonafe have a Chelsea boot? Maybe a whole-cut Chelsea boot?

I have feeling this would be a easy GMTO.

I love the new chiseled round last 74945. It's a nice alternative to square chisel toe shoes, which I have plenty of.

I think this last would make an awesome oxford captoe, or another balmoral boot with a brown suede/brown calf combo.

Apparently it fits almost exactly like the Carmina Forest last, but @Skoaktiebolaget (Alex) and or @Leaves could confirm that.

Yeah it's odd I had to sign for this package. USPS ended up coming by after 7pm but I ha already left. Had to wait til the morning to pick them up. Looks like a boot box
