Pretty sure any that mod to the style would incur the 30% pattern change fee.

Not sure I can accept the 946 as a boot last. Maybe a chukka.

Yup. That's why I unsubscribed to the thread and blocked Bakes....

You won't be having my enabling services in this thread any longer. LOL

I'm sure they'd waive the pattern fee to get a lot of orders

I picked up the EB Balmoral boot from skoak a couple of months ago, but just got around to taking some photos....









some might say too similar to the button boots, but I saw naaaah! ( as you can guess, I like to black/grey combo)....

@MoosicPa

Are those the only pairs of Bonafé you own? How did you size them relative to each other?

Would love to know how 74945 last compares to 946 in terms of fit.

Any idea of the model number of this one? @Skoaktiebolaget

Looks very much like this 3817 model from Bonafé, but with another last and material.

So I spoke with Gabriel from Skoak, and he said that the chukka in lama is the cola color. I first thought it was the ebano because it looks like a dark brown in the picture, but they took a closer up picture that shows it as a little lighter, like this one on the left part of the picture below.




What is everyone's thoughts on the chukka with the chain norvegese on a leather sole (either single or double) with either the Cola or the Reh (between cola and sahara) that no one seems to have a picture of. Also on the 804 last (picture of the monk with the beveled leather sole) because I was told that this last will fit my narrow low volume foot better and I would like to add a different level of elegance with that almond toe to contrast with the chukka style itself as well as lama leather and chain norvegese.

Chain Norvegese:





Leather sole with beveled waist on 804 last (almond shape):





Flat Leather Sole (can't tell if single or double but still in two tone like the single)

1000




Somewhat Flat (double leather sole in one tone) as in the norvegese derby below:





Gabriel sent me a picture of the basic shade of the Reh, but not in the lama leather to get an idea, which is also the same shade as the picture above.

1000





Which color (in lama) as well as which leather sole do you think makes the nicest combination?
