That music. Not sure if I'm watching a shoe commercial or an Avengers trailer ?...

haha, yeah, I was waiting for LIMU Emu to appear.
Hey on that custom cork insole, do they put a new one in when they put new outsoles on?

 

[James1051]

As I was reading all of the various comments on MacNeils and mentions of TS 2017, I ran across this picture. Natty shell MacNeils straight out of the box in 2017.

I nominate Natty MacNeils for the next GMTO. How many pair does it take for a GMTO? And wouldn't this board easily buy double that number, whatever the number is?

I’d be in.

No Poron in my white suede Nomads. Would like them even more if they had Poron in them.

Doesn't say "NOMAD" in them. Wonder if this is why they were deposited in the Shoe Bank in the first place. Glad I withdrew them.

Cork is replaced, but they don't touch the footbed

Likely, as mine do say Nomad.

Hey!!! This is exactly what I recommended to ae_ashley for the next trunk show but with shell on the vamp and maybe on the 65 or 201 last.

Your pair look perfect now. Great job!

Remember when I said that I’d prefer the shaft on my new Sullivan Streets to be even darker?

This is pretty close to what I wanted. With a heat index of 105, I won’t be wearing these today.

I have a feeling that @ae_ashley looks at the modifications I do and just shakes her head.

 

[stook1]

I don't know about that but I look at the modifications that you do and all I can think is that AE should hire you to run the finishing department!

It would be WAY easier to do these things with an MTO program, where the color could be built into the shoe from the start.

@ae_ashley Is the Sullivan Street dress boot being discontinued? I see it is in Clearance.

Got confirmation the Sullivan Street is indeed being disco'ed.



Ordered a pair in black.

 

[stook1]

Unfortunate --- that boot should be a staple for them. It's just on the wrong last and needs a little more color contrast to be perfect.

Hardly! They're beautiful, and the boots you dyed green are legendary, friend.

Pardon my ignorance, probably because of age, but what is a "gender reveal party"?
