I'm definitely in, but not sure about the suede bit. Would prefer it on the back or without as I'm not sure what you mean by on the tongue. I'm with zippy, don't want anything too weird on this one. Also don't mind about the pull tab.

Orange suede tongue here on these from the Bureau.

 

[Marcellionheart]

Tentative yes on the suede. Prefer without, but I'm not sure it's a deal breaker considering how subtle it is. No red dainite, though. Warming to the idea of a commando sole if we're going to go uber casual. (very similar to this suede longwing boot: http://www.fransboonestore.com/en/s...ichard-longwing-boot-repello-snuffsuede.html#

Thoughts?

 

[bibs]

interested in this, just want to see final design and i think the suede tongue would be a +

 

[rkusmant]

yeah, brown commando / dainite sole is fine for me.

Longwing/Golosh Boots
Burnished Burgundy Calf
Tongue: burgundy suede
4444 last
Natural flat welt
Brown dainite/commando sole
Brass eyelets

Anybody else? 2 more and we can proceed and make this run.

 

[bibs]

so no brogueing ?

 

[zippyh]

Definitely needs brogueing.

 

[Marcellionheart]

Yes, no austerity brogue. Full longwing action a la the Herring Froswick.

Now the question, do we want burgundy calf:



Or this waxy red calf?

 

[zippyh]

I vote burgandy since I have a pair of the red cavalier stows.

Here's a picture of the Froswick for reference.

 

[rkusmant]

Pardon my ignorance, what's the austerity brogue?

Definitely burgundy, now dainite/commando sole?

 

[zippyh]

Austerity brogue is like the ones you pictured a while back .

I vote dainite but could live with a commando.
No full lugs though.

 

[Marcellionheart]

Burgundy is fine. But I vote commando Can live with Dainite, though. I already have a Burgundy AS captoe dainite boot on the way.

What do you mean by no full lugs, though? Do you mean vibram lugs? I'm definitely thinking of just the standard English commando sole.

 

[zippyh]

Yeah, by "full lugs" I was talking about the super chunky vibram lugs.

I'm okay with these commando soles.

 

[Marcellionheart]

Yeah, I don't want vibram lugs on these either. Does Trickers even offer that option?

By the way, for an added detail, do you think a red calf lining would look good?

 

[rkusmant]

Yeah, definitely brown british commando sole not vibram ones, red calf lining is fine for me.
All brass eyelets?

 

[zippyh]

Do they make a brown commando sole?
Anyway, brown or black is fine with me.

Red calf lining is a plus.
Brass eyelets sounds good.
