You got it RogerP & wired!

X-post from Carmina Thread but we are thinking about doing an MTO for model 907 Two Eyelet Derby in either 1. Saddle Shell (shown in saddle shell below) or 2. Hatch Grain Dark Brown Leather Also, Our Inca Double monk in Dark Brown Hatch Leather? Also I think Justin was thinking about a Shortwing brogued Boot in Forest Last in Saddle Shell which I really liked as well

What about doing the 910 in hatch grain with dark edge trim.

 

[mrjester]

Yep the picture is in Saddle shell.
If done in hatch grain it will be dark brown hatch.

What if it's not hatch grain? Is Saddle the color? The picture looks great. Wondering if I should sell my EG Westminsters to get those.

This is the shortwing boot in saddle shell that Steve was talking about. I think this is pretty nutty.

This is on the forest last and we talked about dainite soles possibly.

I know there are a lot of ideas going on right now and i definitely will be organizing it a little better for our next order season

Many different members ask & pitch for different MTO ideas on a daily basis (which I am greatly thankful for and appreciated of btw! Since your creativity has made some of the most beautiful MTOs possible!) I might have ran a little too wild with MTOs and might have made few members uncomfortable and lost with too many choices at hand. I guess I was just trying a little too hard to please everyone and I do apologize.

But just because I pitch for an idea, please do not be pressured/burdened to buy

There are just simply too many great shoes and too many great brands out there that we all can enjoy!

So with that being said, Carmina will be closed for summer holiday in August and I will probably be ordering more shoes with Carmina in September.
So in the month of August I will be pitching for few more MTO ideas to get ready for September order!

Currently I've been getting quite a few feedback on the two eyelet derby (907) in either saddle shell or dark brown leather (which I might pursue either way for September order as long as I get enough interest in the next few weeks)

Another I might pursue maybe the shortwing boots Justin has posted above in Forest Last in Saddle Shell as well.
But again I will get things organized after hearing more feedback towards end of this month!

As always thank you everyone so much for such a warm welcome here in the SF community and all your support. As a young guy starting out in this business with no prior #menswear experience and only passion and addiction for #menswear, none of this would've been possible without you gents' support. Please do not hesitate to PM or email or call/text me anytime with any questions.
Cheers!

Also we will be having a sale on all Finamore shirts and two of our Carmina models we carry (black wingtip derby & navy suede string loafer) in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!

young footwear!

 

[mrjester]

Keeping an eye out for a Finamore shirt possibly!

Is there a Finamore sizing chart? Chest, sleeve length, shoulders, etc?

 

[NAMOR]



Steve, the passion for these MTOs is great, but you've turned on a firehose and are trying to get people to drink from it. Slow down a bit, and perhaps do it in a more organized manner

I think you should do one MTO per month or something, maybe two. That way, you can maximize exposure and participation. There are so many Carmina MTOs going on right now, it's hard to keep track, and as a customer of yours, I think you are outpacing people's wallets to some degree.

Warm regards.

wouldnt this have been better suited for a PM?

I'm interested in the Two Eyelet Derby. I'd also like the jodhpur boot model in green, or navy suede w/ brass hardware, and a matching shell strap.

Yes. I will post up the sizing chart this weekend! The sale prices will be $255 shipped!

young footwear!

Cheers ThinkDerm! I appreciate your business!

X-post from Carmina Thread but we are thinking about doing an MTO for model 907 Two Eyelet Derby in either

1. Saddle Shell (shown in saddle shell below)

How about this shoe, with natural sole edge treatment like this St Crispin? If you don't like the natural finish, you could always make it darker.

Very True. RogerP? Wired? Joshua?

Just as a visual aid:

Might have overdone the trim shine though

 

[ThinkDerm]

not really.

 

[WiredandTired]

Either one would work for me, since by nature this is a casual shoe in both the saddle color and the fact that it is a PTB. Natural or Dark brown edge trim works, only one that wouldn't is black.
