Joe Gat:
Mind sharing where you are getting SC's for EG prices? I've found EGs for $1100-1200 and on sale for $650 and up.
I almost never see SCs on sale and they're $1600 at LeatherSoul.


I'll just let this fact stand on its own: Leather Soul's latest SC MTO offering, the PC Boot, is $2,300 with lasted trees.

Is that made with the ridiculous Russian calf found from that sunken ship? Crazy story behind that.

It's LS MTO. 

SC were structured to produce shoes at or below JL/EG prices, not sure if its still the case after Michael Rollig left in 2009.


I'm not advocating for or against it; rather, I am listing the price as a point of fact. There was previous discussion of EG and SC prices, so I thought a very recent LS-SC offering, and its listed price, was relevant to the issues at hand. Personally the boot does nothing for me, but that's beside the point.

He left to start Zonkey. Their stuff might not be to people's taste on this forum, but they're really nice (some even quite conservative) when you see them in person.

I've never handled Riders in person, so I can't say. Online, I can see the similarities, but there was an appreciable lightness to the Zonkeys, which I thought was similar to my SCs.
