And for the Franken-footers (11.5UK) an awesome deal on Snuff String Loafers.


Will do $120 + shipping if you mention this thread!

Hope I’m not that late into the game, could you please add me to the Amaretto wait list?

Hey Folks - anyone having trouble getting the customization tool to launch or display as an option? Could be my mobile browser and I'll try again when I get home but for now, when I make my selections for the fur-lined jumper boot, the option to customize does not appear to be available.

Are you trying to customize this boot?

That's the one.
You can customize the following (same model number). You'll need to specify you want fur lining and Amaretto cordovan in comment box. Guessing there is a surcharge for fur lining since it's not a complementary option available via customization tool.

Oscar: Similar toe room to Rain, lower instep, narrower heel too. Most of my Carmina boots I prefer to fit more snugly since they're really more of a dress shoe feel. Other brands like Alden and Red Wing, I prefer a little roomier.

Any chance that you have both a shoe and boot on Oscar? I have a shoe (ptb) but very curious if the boots fit the same or if they have a little more space, particularly in the instep or, less likely, width.

Sorry, I only have a pair of the Jumper boots (which I'm actually wearing today). But they don't feel particularly spacious in the instep to me. Certainly lower than Rain, which I need to wear a tongue pad in if I go with the same size as Oscar.
