I really like Cambridge in Mahogany, but I need to wait few weeks before I buy anything new

Gorgeous footwear here. How can I get them to make me an Oxford in G width?

Am also curious although I believe we want H width, as F is standard for AS


Ah yes, that's right. I forgot that they're different from EG and CJ.

Both pairs arrived, and both are really nice!!!
Highly recommend Moore in Chestnut!

@Northampton21 - thank you very much for your pictures and comments about AS Radwell in Oak - I am really happy about my decision. It is amazing pair of shoes.

I can get them made, but the minimum order with AS is 10 pairs - have you tried the 7WK last, this is an FX ( F+ 1/2 width)?


Yeah, I doubt we could get 10 people to order H widths for something as boring as what I'm after (dark brown stitch or punch cap).

You and I have actually spoken in your own thread, I'm definitely a full extra wide (H in Vass and Bonafe, EEE in Carmina, Alden, and Allen Edmonds).

Thanks for giving us the info, though.

I don't suppose they would do a one off? If it were something basic?

I fully agree with you - leather on Radwell is really nice!!!!


Yes Dembowski, I only realised how amazing this shoe was after seeing it myself. I'm glad the pictures abs advice helped you as sometimes it's a big decision!
Seeing the new Radwells and trying them on made me realise how different they are compared to the hatch grain model..

Completely different from Hatch. As you described it earlier - looks like completely 2 different pair of shoes

Hi

Is it possible to make a Group MTO here on styleforum for a pair of Alfred Sargent shoes from A Fine Pair of Shoes? How many shoes must be sold in order to create a group MTO in the exclusive line and what would the price be? You are also running a campaign where you give free world wide shipping and lasted shoe trees for free, is this also applicable at a Group MTO?

I was thinking if this is a model that is possible to do. An Adelaide in dark burgundy on the 104 last or 48 last (The picture is from AS Blake)

700


I'm looking for a dark burgundy such as Vass Oxblood or Gaziano & Girling Vintage Rioja.

Is this a shoe my fellow SF user would like to see?, add your comments below!!

I just bought the Moore in burgundy. I had been asking for something more unique for years, but when AFPoS put out the Moore in burgundy I was all in right away. A few years ago we did the Blake in burnished Oak on a choice of lasts. I got the 48. It's a nice shoe, but I actually like the 724 last better. I think the shoe would have looked better without a cap and with a medallion on the toe. That would have been awesome.

The ones you pictured are not the standard Blake. The Blake is a shortwing austerity brogue adelaide. Seems the one you posted has no toe cap or heel counter.
