Good day Gents. Has anyone noticed that the style options on the Carmina Customiser Tool are now down to a limited number of options? What gives?

I believe they are developing a new 3D tool for customization, that could be the reason I presume.

I still have a couple of Carminas in the rotation. These are my second favorite.

The frankenstitch is so badass. I wish my bourbon jumpers had it, especially since they are only ever worn with denim these days. Like today:

Like Wooderson and joint they don't have frankenstitch but it'd be a lot cooler if they did, yes it would.

Do we have any idea when Carmina is launching their new 3D customization tool? I've seen a few IG posters tease it. Supposedly it will list all of their current "off menu" leather options as well.

It’s coming soon I heard. The clips I’ve seen it looks amazing…

I see that the new customization tool will have the option to choose between 360 goodyear welted and 270 goodyear welted. How it will affect the heel of the shoes? Will they become like the Allen Edmonds ones (that clumsy and bulky style)?

Franken all the way…

Completely agreed. It adds such an insanely cool character to the boot!

Hi hope they don’t do away with the other styles. I’ve had my heart set on two models that are no longer part of the selections.

You can pick a similar style on the website & in the Request box you can type in the model # your heart desires.

they take the request box very serious.

Does anyone else struggle with how Carmina blocks their Chelseas and Jodhpurs at the instep? I like my Jodhpurs, but I can't say that they were a complete success because I have to cinch the strap to the last hole and even then it's spacious. I have a pair of shell Chelseas that aren't as exaggerated as your boots, but I'm going to sell them because I can tell that my instep is too low for the fit to make me happy.

Got stung by a wasp on the calf this week and have a swollen ankle. Jodhpur fit on that ankle is great! It must be amazing having normal insteps!
