In the next 48 hours, I will post two or three good options and request indications of interest to determine winning design(s). After that we'll open up the order book and take deposits, then get it in the production queue.

This is happening.


Here's hoping the original req: for the austerity boot makes the cut.

I didn't see anybody mention it, I'm still hunting a grey and think the budapester in a grey/charcoal would kill; it could be the one.

Love the double monk extra model shoe, but will have to wrap my head around the museum brown.

I have that shoe on my VASS grail list, but in either plum museum or navy...

I like Galosh & Old English. But they have two different shades. The true one is the Galosh shade, correct? I wonder if these might be more conducive to a single sole but it seems that ship has sailed...

The Old English is in direct sunlight so it looks lighter and redder than in most settings. The closest to real life color for medium brown suede is probably that picture of the chukka

Count me in for Boot option 1. My personal preference would be a dainite or thin rubber sole given that 75% of the time I would be wearing them in New England, there would be some sort of moisture on the ground.

As far as interest, i would be down for the double monk, even in brown museum.

Just waiting for my first VASS to come in to confirm my size... :bored:

I noted they are all specified with a HAF sole, any reason why? Especially on the more sleek oxfords and monk. I have not seen the VASS HAF sole, how much thicker would that be in comparison?

Shoe 4, Boot 1, and Boot 2 looks interesting.
Will the Styleforum discount apply to the MTO?
