Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

[othertravel]



I won't claim these are the three best EGs or even necessarily my three faves - but they are the only three that I own and I am extremely pleased with each pair.

With respect to the Galway, I will say that it not only ranks as my favourite EG, but easily one of my favourite items of footwear on this here planet.

If you told me I could only own 3 EGs (and that you were going to buy me those three)  I'd probably pick 2 Galways and a Shannon.

Hey Roger,

Is the last one a Westminster in museum calf or regular calf? If the latter, what's your polishing routine?

Nice collection btw!

Thanks OT. The Westminster is a custom burnishing / patina job by Alexander Nurulaeff.

I think you mentioned this in a previous post, but what's the cost and turnaround time?

Both vary according to the specific job and present backlog. But for me it was 90€ and 5 weeks.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but can the Galway be ordered without the toe cap? I have never seen it as a plain toe but am curious if its possible

Probably not, EG has become very strict about MTO. Now the options are very limited.

It's a mock toe cap, basically just stitching, so shouldn't actually be a problem.

I keep telling myself that I don't need Galways. Then I come on this site. I need to stay away.

Galways, by far the best looking shoes out there. Should start saving for a pair, just a one.

Maybe there should be a separate Galway appreciation thread. Until then i post a pic of my latest purchase

*edit* - Someone who knows why the pics are so small then posting through a tablet?

change the resolution manually. I think the stock size says 200/400 and I change mine to 600/1000

Every time I see a pair of Galways, I want them. Those are really nice in all smooth calf.

Jayzus what a collection and nice shots. Excellent choices!

Thanks Frills!

Dark Oak, last 82, double dainite.


NAMOR - Thanks. Normaly a post from my PC and are used to be able to choose size.

Nice trio, Rog.
