Thanks again everyone. Look forward to seeing what you come up with @BootSpell . I had originally requested all metal eyelets on these as well, but it was confirmed that was the next level MTO charge. I didn't want to change the last, so it seemed like a waste just to get rid of hooks. These are so dark, they add a little pop anyway.

Weird, I was thinking that exact thing --- being a dressier approach to the Galway, I was wondering if all eyelets instead of speed hooks would fly under the 1st MTO level. You answered my question.

Here's an example by aubercy with stingray facing, looks pretty cool to me, not a captoe though.
That is really nice. I never thought of using a different colour stingray. I was thinking of a black shoe with a black stingray facing but a plaintoe like that looks way cooler.

I'd just received these StC MTOs a couple of days ago.
I must say these are really excellent shoes, having not handled anything even remotely close to how beautiful these things are. Thanks once again to the great folks at SkoaB, and Gabriel in particular.
There is a problem though, I can't bear to wear them.
