I think we can all agree the new MTO looks incredible. Was a little surprised to see that the sample in the pic seems to be in amaretto cordovan, yet this isn’t an option for the MTO. Looks a little too light for it to be a lighter shade of Armagnac. Thoughts?

Carmina did an excellent job of delivering my most recent order (which Im very happy with) within the timeframe they stated.
Happy to hear! I’ve got a custom pair on the way. Hoping for the same results. Got any pics of yours to share?

Those look like bourbon to me (or even natural). For sure not armagnac and they are much more of a muted and less orangey tone than amaretto. By the way, that makeup appears to be identical to my color 4 makeup from a while ago right down to the last and 270 degree welt.

I fell in love with these on the Carmina site but they were a little too rich for my blood. About a year later they popped up on eBay for less than half the original price. Perfect condition. Guess it was meant to be. View attachment 1484726 View attachment 1484727 price.
It's always great when you find a pair you've been eyeing appear in the second-hand market. Are your trousers bedcord?
