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

[NAMOR]



Just got these Galways, black with black suede and ridgeway soles. I know I probably shouldn't wear to work, but they are so comfortable.

What is this? This looks like a mutated Galway

Anybody have any idea where I might be able to buy a pair of Edward Green lasted shoe trees? I'm picking up a pair of Hutton Burnished Wingtips from Ralph Lauren and it appears they no longer come with shoe trees.


I think these might be on the 89 Last.

These may be G&G. I don't think RL carries EG anymore. I could be wrong, of course.

Boeing beige?

Indeed!

Nice! Which Casino?

this one is a 777-200

To be honest, I'm not up with all the terms etc. These were custom made / made to order through the Paris EG shop. The order form says: "Galway 4-82-E-Ridgeway- Black / Black Suede. The next line says "RNDTOE then EMBAUCHOIR BOIS F T:7" (but I have no idea what any of that means!)

here they are without my big foot in them.

Beautiful boot man. I just learned something new today

Beautiful boot man.

Agreed. Pretty much spent my shoe budget for the year but I'd be all over an MTO in this. A reddish suede (berry is it?) and burgundy antique or a rich brown would be amazing.

Folks, anybody bought any Top Drawers recently. Thinking of a Burgundy Gladstone. But I'd just like to check out the price other people have been quoted as last time I inquired I got a vague (possibly inaccurate) sense that OS buyers were being charged more than locals.

My two cents: 82-E = last 82 E fitting, RNDTOE = round toe, EMBAUCHOIR BOIS = wooden shoe trees; F = F fitting, T:7 = size: 7

Don't know why the boots are "E" fitting but the trees are "F" fitting though.

Hmm, really.


I thought for sure these were EG.

Yes, different combinations of the leather colours would look very nice, but I had always intended this for work, so had to go black / black

lol, for the record, this was on the ground waiting for pax to board

Not sure about the trees either. One of them is very stiff getting in - not because the boot is a different size, but the metal prong things don't easily retract inside when pushing them in.

Thank you!

I would also like to thank the main posters here - it's this thread that convinced me to go with EG's in the first place and I don't regret it one bit. Sadly these forums have led me to the leather jackets and watch thread...

Yes. I placed an order for a pair in early February at the London EG store. I was charged £1,250 including VAT although, since I was quoted up to 10 months for delivery, I've only paid 50% of that so far.

UK VAT (Value Added Tax, i.e. sales tax) is 20% so the price excluding tax would have been £1,041.67 for my order. That's with no added extras such as metal toe pieces and was for a regular shoe rather than a boot.
