    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    Mr Porter matches the price set by Edward Green's webstore (both the UK and US site). Edward Green states that US orders are inclusive of any duties. If you order from the UK store, its likely you would need to pay the duties (unless you get lucky!). Really, I think it ends up the same.

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    Just got my first pair of Edward Green to complete the trifecta after only having had Lobbs and G&G in the past. Dover in Utah 40% off on the Mr. Porter Private Sale, too good to pass up. Will have to see how they hold up after a couple wears.

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    Just got word my pair has shipped. A long 3 months later but very excited to get my hands on them. I had initially been sent creased pairs which I was informed were floor models. I had requested a brand new pair be sent, but was informed this would take 8-10 weeks. During this time, I had...

    It is illegal yes, but it was still promised. They should have been up front rather than surprise him with the duty charge.

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    I’ve still yet to receive my pair from the sale. Have chased, but have had to deal with the factory closing etc. I personally am still very curious as to the reason behind the delay. Their website lists my model as in stock in all sizes and has done so since the date of the sale. I’m unsure why...

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    I followed up on Monday, she mentioned that the factory has just re-opened this week and I should be receiving my pair sometime next week. My model and all sizes have also been listed as in stock on the website since the date of purchase. Unsure exactly the cause of the wait - perhaps they...

    You're probably right! But hopefully we can expect more regular sales

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    I'd like to note that my order has come in as of Thursday. Very pleased with the order and the price of course. Compared to JL or EG, G&G's retail price is still in-line, if not slightly lower. It was interesting to read about how they have phased out B2B - I was previously not aware of that...

    Gaziano & Girling Appreciation & Shoe Appreciation Thread (including reviews, purchases, pictures)

    I was probably one of the first orders placed (they were still individually adding the price changes to each shoe on their website when I placed my order), and still no shipping e-mail. A bit disappointed considering that the shipping charges are GBP50. As a side note, the shipping also does...

    Is the loafer last smaller than their regular last? Would like to know this as well

    Sole Peeling on John Lobb Hutton's?

    Hi All, I noticed on my Hutton's (which I have only worn 15-20 times) the leather sole is beginning to peel at the toe for one of the shoes. I was wondering if you guys had a remedy for this?

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    If you start the check out on UpperShoes it says in brackets besides the delivery cost (Tax incl.). I haven't used UpperShoes before but could this mean that they have prepaid the duties on their end? Anyone have experience with UpperShoes? Trying to decide between Robert Old and UpperShoes...

    Wrinkles in Suit

    I was afraid this was the case. Any suggestions on where to move from here?

    Wrinkles in Suit

    I would actually also like to know the answer to this as well. I got an MTM suit (full-canvassed) and and after taking it to the dry cleaners to get it pressed (it arrived wrinkly from being sent in the mail), I noticed some wrinkling in the chest similar to Pistos' suit. Hoping there's an...
