I'd love a pair of St James II in the hatch grain

I wonder what the Canterbury would look like in it too

 

[Saratorial_Splender]



love that Hatch-grain.

IMHO the hatch grain is best for wholecuts or less detailed shoes. The extra punching and brouging takes away from the stunning detail of the hatch grain leather itself. I would order it in GG Hays, Westbury or GG Deco Cooper or Holden, Anything else would be like guilding the lilly.

I am absolutely chomping at the bit to order a pair of Papworths at the moment. How is the sizing? I wear a size 9.5UK (medium width) in Di Biancos and Sutors, 10.5US in Allen Edmonds, my foot isn't overly narrow but fits medium well, can anyone assist? First pair of G&Gs for me....

G &G is half size shorter than US sizes. So if you are 10.5 US in AE you should go with G&G 10 uk but there is no way to be 100%. If you are planning on buying such expensive shoe such you should try it first at the trunk shoe preferably.

For me I'm 1 size smaller than my US size - except with the KN14 last, which for some reason fits differently and then I'm 1/2 size smaller.

I wear 10.5US
9.5US in GG (besides KN14 which I'm a 10 GG)
10/10.5 EG

gables or westbury?

i like the gables style, but like the dark brown color on the westbury

 

[Hampton]

I actually don't like the gables that much. They are nice but wouldn't buy them.

I didn't know this, I will ask Nick. Going to do MTO one way or another since that's the only way you can get the Decos. Thanks stitch!
