    St. Crispin's Appreciation Thread

    Wanted to follow up on my experience. Ordered 1/2 size smaller and they are fantastic! Thanks again to @DL120 for the post and for chatting on IG!

    THIS is perfect and makes me comfortable enough to swap out for the 1/2 smaller. The fit of your Rain is almost exactly the same as mine (lacing width, flexing in leather, etc). Thanks for taking the time to write the above. Beautiful pictures!

    Yes, done online. I followed their online fitting instructions and sent that image to Phillip. Regarding similarities to Rain. I've got about 5 pairs on the Rain last. The Classic last has much better arch support but, on my foot, has a touch more room in the instep. The classic last...

    St. Crispin's Appreciation Thread

    Thanks! Phillip said based on my comments, they seem a tad big but didn't elaborate on what could be done to change the shoe; mostly likely because I'm trying to get into a pair by Aug 1 and he can't make a custom pair by then. Thoughts on sizing down 1/2 size? Or am I trying to stick a round...

    The 104 arrived! Only thing I can say is WOW! They are gorgeous. Nothing like anything I’ve seen from a shoe before. I’m unsure on sizing however (classic last). There seems to be a little room around the vamp/quarter/tongue/instep area. When tied, the eyelets close all the way and there is a...

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

    Is the Dover in nightshade too casual for a casual wedding? My fiance and I are holding a 'civic wedding' due to the pandemic and I want something special. Wearing a navy blue suit. Considering the Dover in nightshade, StC long wing austerity in black or G&G St James II in vintage cherry.

    When ordering from StC, should USA based customers expect to receive a VAT bill? Haven't had a shoe delivered from overseas in a number of years so I couldn't remember. Can I expect a bill when they are delivered?

    I prefer it sans medallion but I'm at a cross-roads due to timing and sizing. That said, I do like this shoe...a lot!

    Good to know, thanks! I plan on ordering either tonight, but leaning SC....

    St. Crispin's Appreciation Thread

    Thanks to all that replied! I'm leaning SC - if I can learn to polish them properly, I think they will pop even more! Would still love some feedback on this particular last/combo/etc. I wear a uk5.5 so finding this size in stock is very difficult - feel lucky that they have this in stock...

    Long story, but due to the uncertainty of the pandemic, my fiance and I have decided to have a 'civil wedding.' We are 35, been together for 7.5 years, engaged 2.5 and we want to get married on our terms and on our time. We started planning in Jan/Feb, but stopped as things become less certain...

    Wedding shoe advice

    Thanks for the reply and kind words. Regarding usefulness: I wear black dress shoes about twice a week. Other days are some variation of brown from Carmina. With what I wear, I think a burgundy/cherry shoe would get about as much wear as a black shoe. I have wanted a burgundy shoe for a...

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    FWIW, they used too (I bought a pair from them) but I was told no when I inquired about a shoe after they ended their affiliate status with this forum.

    Skoaktiebolaget – Enzo Bonafé, Saint Crispin’s, Löf & Tung

    I'll go further lol. Most men and women can't tell the difference between those brands, aesthetically, from shoes you can buy from DSW, banana republic, jcrew, dillards, nord's, cole haan's, etc.
