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

Are you sure it is not available? This model (i believe you have the 80514) was and still is on the custom page available for order. Even if it is not the exact model it sure does look like it as I own a black 80514 on the Buger last. Just saying if you want one I believe you can get one.

I wanted to get this in another color preferably color 8 during the Carmina NY store opening but unfortunately they don’t make this wholecut boot anymore.

This model (80514) is still available on Carmina's site as a customized order. My question is though, if I order the wholecut chelsea would the boots be sent with the "seam" in the middle of the uppers rather than on the heels? Seems like a strange place for a seam, but the other chelsea models aren't offered in the Burger last.

I got one a few months back, only 1 seam up the back.

Is your cordovan boot ? They will still make calf.
The problem I mentioned was explained to me by Carmina NY store for cordovan wholecut boots not calf wholecut boots.

No mien is calf. But I just added one in cordovan to my cart it will let me order it and it clearly says whole cut. So not sure how they can let you add it to your cart, order it as a wholecut, but then send you a boot with 2 seams. I would call Carmina or send an email maybe the rep at the store was wrong as it sure looks that way.

That information was given to me by the owner during the Carmina NYC store opening but if they are ready to make it again I will gladly jump on to make a color 8 wholecut boot.

Not sure all I know is you can goto the custom page and you sure can order one I had it in my cart just needed to process the payment.

It sure is possible they don't want to make them anymore but just never removed the option from the customs page.

I would say order it fast before they update and you will grab the last one ever.

Love their wholecut last. Probably never fits me though because my wide and high volume feet. Quick question, do they send you an email with tracking number when your shoes are shipped? The confirmation email only says the shoes will be shipped in 30 days.

Is burger last also have high instep? Since you are saying it has high volume !!

By far the most of all the Carmina last I own. Example rain slip on boot will kill me for several wears until it gives in for my high instep. the day up put on my Buger Chelsea boot they fit as if molded to my foot. I have been wearing them a lot and no heel slip, good fit, no issues with my high instep from day one.
