Not sure why the button boots can't sub for a bal boot in the same leather combo. I agree with the sentiment "I think I want, but unsure how I'd wear..." but I'd try to rock them.

I might be in for a GMTO if the specs are right.

And goddamn, that deco black is gorgeous!

@Leaves

Can you tell me is there any difference between Carmina black wholecut on Rain last that you have and the one offered on Carmina website?

In your photo there are 5 eyelets, and on Carmina website 4 eyelets.

Not that I care too much about one eyelet, just curious if there is any other difference.

Carmina has changed and updated the 910 model to five eyelets, which is the version we have in our store. we had the wholecut with four eyelets before but it is five now.

What are the prices for those 2 grain leathers?


An Arran GMTO on any of these would be 7440 SEK (about $1003) ex. VAT. I will let @Leaves correct me if things have changed. Very reasonable IMO...

After seeing the pics from leffot I was just about to email the guys at skoak about a mto pair.

Haha, I'm not sure that's the result that Steven was going for when he posted them.

TBH, I'm thinking of unfollowing them tumblr. His posts are always so promotional. (Never posts shoe Appreciation without saying "buy this model from me.")

Unfollowed him on IG already because there were too many pretentious food selfies.

Haha yeah that didn't come out exactly the way I had intended. I have been thinking of mto'ing a button boot for a while and since ive ordered from Skoak before and they have an established relationship figured it would be easiest. The email blast just reminded me I've been slacking on ordering. Anyone interested what colors were you guys thinking? I would prefer a lighter tan and suede or burgundy combo.

I would like leather soles but I am flexible on this.
Color I am trying to determine, I would like very dark brown or maybe dark brown museum calf.
What about you?
