EDWARD GREEN DOVER UK 7/7.5

[Cleav]

NOW SOLD
​

Gentlemen, I have a pair of Edward Green Dover in DOAK UK 7/7.5 ready to go to someone who will wear them.
GB£525
This Norwegian aproned derby has long been an Edward Green icon. Each pair is hand-sewn with a boar's bristle needle, one of shoe-making's most intricate crafts.

I've come to realise that the 606 is my preferred last and have ordered another pair, these on the 32 last just don't get worn as I bought them too small so will go to fund new purchases.

To quote Edward Green The 32 last is a heritage last which has become synonymous with our Dover hand-sewn derby.

Please see the same shoe, different colour, here on their site

They have been worn outside rarely, I believe no more than five occasions and are therefore in excellent condition as I believe the photographs show.

I am asking GB£525 which includes postage, i will include shoe bags, NO TREES (saves on postage) and will come in a generic box unless I can find the original.

Sold as seen, no returns accepted so please ask all questions in advance. I shall be delighted to hear from you.

How do you find the 32 compares with 606/202? I used to prefer it but now the D width in the new refined 202 is pretty good and not too different from 32 by my feet.

Never had a 202

For me the 606 fits superbly whereas I felt I needed to go up half a size in 32, hence reluctantly letting them go.

To add a bit more it is a custom last for the Dover. The forefoot shape of the 32 last follows the line of the hand stitched apron

Interesting. My comfort with the 32E and preference for the newly-resinated 202/606D in the same size (over E width, which isn't awful) may be consistent with your experience.

I wonder if they've started re-doing the 32s with resin, though.
