    .Tricker's actually have patterns available for a high leg Stow which has a 9 lace holes. I did a few MTO in years gone by

    I’m doing a re-run of the Eaton in Three-tone Kudu if a boot might be for consideration :-)

    The Lambourn would usually be built on the 2161 Last which most would find to be ‘true to size’. Slightly square and chiselled in the toe box, it is quite similar in shape and fit to the classic ‘Capital’ Last which LOAKE use for some of their premium 1880 collection. Hope this helps :)

    Don’t forget the second important piece of information under the ‘Heel Cushion’ too Zippyh ......the UK size, as some made for U S and Japanese markets are sized half a size down for those made for the rest of the world. I saved more than a few mistakes being made in the past with my GMTO :-)

    The cedar trees I keep have a centre screw for width adjustment, so it can be closed up or let out whichever fits best :-)

    I keep them in stock, and as they have quite a large width and length adjustment, are suitable for most Lasts, including 4444 and 4497s.

    Tricker's do sell Shoe Trees, but for what it is worth I don't think they are best fitting for the 4444 Last on which your 'Henry' is built.....it being generous fitting and all. Tricker's Trees are a 'one piece forefoot' that fits their 'City' shoes well. For me, a Shoe Tree to do its best work...

    If you send me a picture of the shoes from the top, showing the Toe area I should be able to tell you if they are on W2298 or 4497s. I have had the Robert model MTO for customers on 4497s fitting 6. Alternatively, gently lift the Heel Cushion inside the shoes (only fixed in place with contact...

    2268 ?? If you mean 2298, then I am fairly certain there is no Width Fitting 6 option. W2298 Last is available in Fitting 4 (Ladies) or Fitting 5 (regular fit). If you are thinking 4497s Last, then there is a notable difference between Fitting 5 and 6. Based purely on averages, working with many...

    Hi KiwiJohn, not sure iff you read my post regarding the Tongue on your Boots, but I wrote to shed a little light on why it is only 'Half Lined'. As the boots have a 'Half Bellows' Tongue, the bottom half is stitched up the sides of the Facings (pieces of leather which house the eyelets). To...

    Thank you very much Sir, I do my best.

    Hate to disagree with the Guys, but you almost certainly have a MTO model there because........Although it is the same 'Pattern' as a Woodstock, the colour is almost certainly 'C Shade' which would make it a model 'Kendal'. However, it has Metal Ring Eyelets fitted, which means that it would...
