maybe start a exchange pre-order thread (probably good for general purpose, given the amount of GMTO going on in SF in general, but probably have to be each vendor specific)

I'd love to see that slipper offered in brown again.

 

[OdusBK]

@Leaves I appreciate all the models that are coming out because everything just looks absolutely stunning!
Do you plan on having a set of "L&T classics" that will, for the most part, always be stocked?

 

[Zerase]

@Leaves I suspect I already know the answer of this question, but is it possible to make an opera pump with Löf & Tung as an MTO?

 

[Leaves]

Is the M last not working for the majority of your customers?

It's difficult to fit people in, I should have put more time into fitting trials.

Leaves, do you have any pictures yet of this in the darker/brown color?

Where you already planning a boot with this or not on the short term? Would be good to understand as it might influence people’s desire to sign up for any gmto. Thanks!

Sorry, I have no picture yet. There are quite a lot of boots incoming the next two months. Several Jumper Boots, Balmoral Boots and Kingsley boots.

Do stock lof & tung models require a mto fee for different widths? Really want the Scott in Utah calf but my rain size is wide.

Currently I only offer one width in my lasts, but I am looking to expand S and T with wider and slimmer fittings within 12 months.

What Löf & Tung lasts/widths would be a good solution for someone who takes 9 EEE in the Carmina Rain last?

+1

See above. Or try the T last, it might work for you.

Difficult to find a true dark brown nowadays. Only seen them in the premium priced brands, would love this colour in a brogue wing tip from L&T.

We have the Espresso Calf, it's pretty darn dark.

Do you only have color 8 and dark brown shell cordovan available for L&T special orders?

Yes, we have Dark Cognac, Color 8, Black and Armagnac (medium brown) Shell available for MTOs. Also some limited Russia Hatch Shell in medium brown and Col. 8.

@Leaves is it possible to return a preordered pair of shoes ?

If it doesn't mention "no returns" then yes you can return or exchange. Please read the product description.

The Barbaro?

Löf & Tung Bingham, Gilbert and Aldrin are the top sellers. These will always be available in a variety of make ups. Especially Black Calf in both rubber and leather soles.

@Leaves I suspect I already know the answer of this question, but is it possible to make an opera pump with Löf & Tung as an MTO?

I do not have any plans right now, but the Barbaro could easily be adopted into Opera Pumps, if there's enough interest.

Speaking of pre-orders:

Löf & Tung Clark in Black Country Calf

Löf & Tung Aldrin in Mahogany Country Calf

Löf & Tung Flores in Mahogany Country Calf

Löf & Tung Kingsley in Utah Calf

 

[nhlducks35]

For the Kingsley in utah calf, would I be able to fit if I wear EE/EEE in Allen Edmonds? (65 and 511 lasts)

Something like this from Paul Stuart https://www.paulstuart.com/opera-pump.html I could go for it.

Those grain Chelseas look terrific.

@Leaves

How does the L&T narrow H last compare to Carmina’s Simpson? Thank you!

Please email [email protected] for all fitting questions. The lads in the store are the same guys answering those emails, and they have loads more fitting experience than I will ever have. They fit people all day, both in store and online.

Reposting the Löf & Tung price list here for your convenience:

there are references in the size comparison charts to wider fittings (at least on the H last), are those currently being developed?

Löf & Tung Last H (normal fit): UK 8

Löf & Tung Last H (wide fit): UK 8

Yes sorry the H does come in two widths! Although the normal fit version will be offered very sparingly in RTW, turns out the wide version is much easier to fit people in.
