That is insane. It is one thing that we found out that we were correct in the guessing but another with such prices!!!! Lucky us!

Yep Yep Yep Yep Yep Yep!!!!!!! LOL

Why bother GMTO? There is no MTO up charge. Get exactly what you want any time

Exactly!
We can share ideas to help each other but then we can each change a bit so we have our own.

Does StC do burnishing akin to EG or even EB?

Anybody have experience with both the 946 and the 804? I find the 804 fits about 4 or 5mm longer in the same size. I'm thinking about sizing down for the 804 on my next purchase.

I just took a look at the selection at Skoaktiebolaget. You guys chose some great styles!!!!


Any details on when you will post pictures of swatches, lasts, soles, etc.?

It is great that MTO will be included as well as shoe trees, but will you also offer other options like the last modification or custom lasts if needed?

thanks @Leaves

So how does StC compare to GG in terms of finish? I know they are hand welted.

Never saw St. Crispins in person, but from others and photos ive seen, the finishing is similar, but G&G is more selective in what hides they use, especially for the quarters.

they will have to change that and also add it to their website and MTO section to show the swatches, soles, lasts, and other options available!

Then the sales will really start to pile in!

OR, one could peruse the St. C website at their leisure & not bug the stew outta Skoak

 

[mw313]

of course we can! I'm quite familiar with their site and the great look book that is available for ideas.

I'm not rushing Skoak, but I think that most people will benefit from seeing it done from their site plus in the lighting that we are used to for pictures.

12000 SEK / 9600 SEK ex VAT, Including lasted, hollowed trees. No MTO fee for single pairs, just like @rydenfan mentioned. Delivery time about 10 weeks. Note that local customs and taxes may apply (you know, the usual drill).

decent prices for off the shelf SC's . . . . good move

Damn. The Saint Crispin's are made in the same county/region I was born, literately 30 miles away.

Nah...then folks just use my ideas. I'll keep them to myself till after I order

haha. that is very generous of you. but there is no GMTO to worry about so once they see if they can order that same day.

you can just let people see the idea first and then they probably will modify it a bit.

Yeah, but this is not his way.
