Meermin Mallorca Shoes

Yes 2 version if we get enough ppl is of course possible.

I'm waiting for prices from Pepe and then we'd need definite in or out comments from people. I'd say Olfe is the last we're aiming for.

How many people would we need to do two types?

I'm not feeling the round toe of the Olfe. I'd prefer the new/modified last posted a couple pages back which should be able to match the sleekness of the AS Jodhpur posted.

I'll ask about that as well as soon as Pepe replies about the navy calf.

I believe it is 6 orders for each type of leather.

Not necessary.I think you only need 6 per last. I did 2 leathers with less than 12 orders

I may be interested in a Jodhpur MTO on New Rey in navy...

^ would you be in on the new chiseled toe last? Around the same width as NR but instep is different. But as it is a boot, instep has less meaning than for example in monks.

What is the MTO wait time?

I put in an order for the regular RTW oxfords with 1 matching belt and it seems it will take 30+ days. I thought RTW = delivery immediately upon payment (not that I paid, yet).

If they are crafting the shoes since my order was submitted and it has been in queue, what really is the quality different aside from leather?

Does anyone have comparison pics of the Olfe vs Hiro? (Looking down from above so we can judge the shape)

This is from their tumblr page.

Yeah, I've seen that one, but I think a person posted the Olfe a few pages back and it looked much skinnier, I thought it was the new ray, so I just wanted to confirm

This wasn't directed toward me, but I will be more interested if the Jodhpur MTO is in the new modified last.

Don't own any suede pair from either Carmina or Meermin, but Meermin use split suede (cheaper, less refined) for their classic range, and reversed calf (full leather, higher quality, thicker) for their Linea Maestros. Carmina only use reversed calf, and those I've seen in person and looks to be of quite good quality with great luster.

Thanks for the info!

Sizing question: Anyone comment to how Olfe compares to Carmina's Simpson last, roughly the same?

Maybe, my jodphurs in NR fit great so i would prefer that.
