LoL. I am not keen on the dark dark brown personally. I am all over Navy.

I meant to ask in our last conversation, what is it about the light shell that attracts you so much? Personally, I find lighter shoes very difficult to color coordinate.

Though I will prolly be in for a natty dundee

LoL. I don't know why I like lighter colors. I just have an eye for it and my culture really allows me to pull it off with anything.

They told me they were going to limit styles to the listed styles only for now.

Yeah, wish they would do a Dalton.

Also spoke to Ryan just now and they won't do a navy or green Grayson. Huhu.

No worries. MacNeil natty and Navy Dundee would be awesome!

What are they charging? Special pricing or current msrp?

 

[Burzan]

Always wanted a walnut Strand but find bals are losing their spot in my rotation as of late and my brown Strands should be enough. I might be listing about 4-5 items for sale in anticipation of these:

Natty Leeds with exposed brass eyelets... and a Natty Dundee. Both on Double JR and with the same edge trim as the walnut Dundee is what I am thinking. Gonna be looking through pics for the rest of the night trying to decide.

What's with a natty strand?

Is that part of the special promotion with the shell offering?

 

[YoungSweet]

Does anyone have a picture of what natty shell looks like?

 

[csmitty]



We think alike sir! I got a natty strand, navy Grayson, and hoping they will do a Navy EC.

Guess I should have looked here first. But how'd you get those styles? I'm thinking navy Dundee and natty MacNeil as well. A cap toe boot would be awesome though.

Also are any other specs selectable? Like edges.

November is shaping up to be a $$$ month.

Right now details are fuzzy. But they are not intending this to be a full service MTO program. They are stating that they will only do the original 6 designs.

Ok. I follow now. So no Grayson's or EC. Hope the welt and edge can be selected. Or decent stock makeup. Lately it's been concerning.

Hoping to have choice of welt color...sole option at least. If the blue is vibrant I am in trouble....lol

We will have to see. I got the impression they are still figuring out all the details, but were understandably excited to share the news with all of us. We will find out in due time, in the mean time lets just hang loose.

I have to decide if I like the Barrie last over the 1 last, I have had a whiskey PTB on my want list for a while now and this could fit the bill in a nice, one of a kind way. The Dundee would be and easy choice, I prefer it to the Alden chukka. I prefer the three eyelets.


I did get a response back from Ryan via email that adding exposed eyelets would be possible, until we get some further details I am at least excited about that haha.

Wow, I didn't even think about the possibility of a Natty PTB. That is a terrific idea and should be easily in the realm of the possible. I would have to digest the concept of exposed eyelets on it as that just may be too much for me!
