Steve--

What sole are you going to do for split toe boot? Also, how much taller are you thinking for the shaft? All eyelets or some speedhooks?

As far as the shaft, this picture will give you a better idea. 7 eyelets total. For sole & speedhook options I will leave that up to MTO participants! (possibly Brown rubber sole?)

Also here are 3 MTO idea for winter as well! Let me know if you would like to participate. Cheers! 1. Two Eyelet Derby in Navy Calf (Rain Last) 2. Split toe in Burnished Burgundy Calf (Simpson Last)

Some PhotoShop-Fu to fight the boredom:

Might have to join that Navy derby MTO, love plain toe derbies...

Not familiar with the Soller Last, how does this compare to the Forest Last?

In regards to cost, how much are we talking about?

 

[justinkapur]

I think Soller last is along the same lines. It's slightly wider like the forest. I think Steve can clarify for sure

Thanks for trying Justin.

What kind of length are we talking about on the shaft of the boot?

Yeah, can't mock-up a boot without knowing how many eyelets to add

EDIT: Here is a random 7 eyelet for reference

Thanks for trying Justin.

The shaft of the current picture shows 5 eyelets but we are going for 7 eyelets like the boots below.
Soller last (EE) is very similar to Forest last (E) but fits a little wider. good amount of toe box room as well. Width wise it will be very similar to Inca (but again with more toe box room)
The price for shell boots are $875 which includes free shipping and a shoe care gift as well.

Thanks Steve.

I'll have to think about it, I already have a MTO I'm waiting on for a Dark Cognac Cordovan Jumper Boot.
