Chocolate kangaroo RM Williams, not my carpet...

I like the carpet, would be fun to play with little cars with grandkids on it......

You have to get down on floor and pretend the carpet is a highway

Not sure if it's because these are the first pair of boots and quality footwear I bought but I have a special relationship with the GII.

My new to me Galways, bought for a pittance off of eBay and off to the cobblers for flush toe taps! Needs a full repolish and some restoration work, excuse the tapered jeans haha, wanted to try them on asap. Anyone know where I can pick up some replacement lasted trees?

Unfortunately my friend .. a like doesn’t quite equal a readiness to drop 1350 usd.

tg
Actually he said 1030 GBP + Vat, that’s about 1550 usd?

If you are in Europe, yes.

Hey boot guys, long time no see! Hope you are all well. Cross posting from our Canadian vintage shoes thread. Here is a pair of size 14 Marfarlane RCMP 1/4 Wellingtons I am getting ready to ship out. Made in Montreal in the 1950s, GYW, nailed leather stack heels with built in spur boxes. It is how we do, er, at least, did!

Gents,

I am thinking of an EG GMTO using a MTO field boot pattern based on Kentmere minus the straps. See the boot MTOed via Leffot in Black London Grain.
Thinking -
Burgundy London Grain ( open to ideas .. )
72 last
Storm Welt
Ridgeway Sole

@Stefan88 ran this by the good guys at EG and the price is expected to be 1030 GBP w/o VAT. Pretty cool I think .. We would need a total of 6 participants.

Cheers
N

N, I am very interested. A few questions:
1) Are you wedded to the 72 last idea? I’d prefer a 202;
2) You alluded to some flexibility on the upper material. What about dark oak antique or snuff suede, as pictured in the exemplars you posted?

Thank you.

202 wont really make it a rugged boot. unsure of how it would look
I am not keen on either DOAK or SS - already have them in Galway.
My second thought was Walnut CC ??

Anyone tried Barbanera more rocker type of boots? They’re probably Blake stitch rather than GW?

wonder how tight the toe box is

Agree to disagree (on the 202 last). It’s a perfect all-aroundwe.
