Every Moma I have seen has not been narrow; always mid-large width.

NDCs are narrow if that is what you are looking for.

I have seen three different shapes/lasts used by MOMA. They offer one thats on the sleeker side. These have a rather squared toe and look quite bulbous. I think they are the same model that's available on yoox, but in a different leather/updated sole:

I can see them working if you really size down and fill out an otherwise elongated toe so to speak. Personally I am not a fan of this particular shape, I believe it's the same used on the reversed leather(?) derbies people purchased some time ago. IMO the least appealing last MOMA uses.

Thanks, its the same model, You are right, if I size down it could work, i like the shape, if they come a bit bigger like we said.

I actually have a few pairs of To Boot New York boots that I bought before I "found" Alden, AE and some British makes.  I would still buy To Boot shoes if the price is right, since I think the suggested retail price is way over-priced, imo.  All my To Boot boots are Blake-stitched to my knowledge, not welted, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.  I know this brand is looked down upon on SF but I think unfairly so.  They probably won't have the durability of say Alden or C&J shoes but they can be resoled if the cobbler has a machine that handles Blake-stitched shoes.  To Boot has some pretty nice looking and quite stylish shoes/boots, all made in Italy, I believe.  The leather is usually quite good and very nicely finished, if thinner than what Alden uses.  As a result, they are very supple and nice to the touch.  The quality of workmanship is very good, imo.

 

So, congrats on your purchase!

I`m searching for a narrow pair of black side zip boots, with a slightly higher heel. Sadly the only pair I` ve founded and I like, is a bit out of my price range. I` ve searched a lot, but didn`t find a similar pair, so I would be really happy, if someone have an idee and could compair me an alternative. Price range is arround 450 $. Thanks for help!

Could anybody recommend me some boots/shoes for $150, similar to these http://www.singer22.com/man/1907-ryan-gosling.html?source=googleaffiliate&gclid=CIS_nZ7NmbUCFUWo4AodIHoAIA . Something unadorned please. This will be my first pair of nicer shoes/boots, so something I can preferably wear in the summer time as well and is versatile.

How is the quality of thorogood boots? Does the leather age nicely?

I've got the black ones and the construction is good - as good as Redwing. Can't really comment on leather ageing obviously, but they're holding up nicely.

Anybody know if these are still in stock anywhere online?

If not, know where I can find something similar? I'm not a docs fanatic, I just don't know who else makes all-white boots like these.

I'm obsessed with boots lately, but am having trouble finding ones I like. Could someone please recommend a boot similar to the Rachel Comey Burnside, please?
