Of course, this colour is hand-painted in our factory.

We can have a lighter - darker shade made to match your exact specifications.

If you are interested, we have quite a large colour palette.
It’s an amazing shoe but I don’t think I could pull off aligator. But it does show what Carnina can produce.?

@Carmina Looks good! Thanks. So we just wait for instructions from you regarding this Color 4 GMTO, correct? I am #11, so I assume I will get in unless all 10 ahead of me remain in and all opt for boots, correct?

My MTO-FW arrived. One of the "boldest" makeup I've ever done.

Model 80405 with Red Vitello + Red Lizard on Deia last.

1. Out of the box:

2. After initial shine, with darken toes.

3. Maiden voyage. To work today. (I'm really lucky that my work allows me to be bold ... and my wife allows me to collect them).

Really lovely shoes. I love the texture. I could see a very nice makeup like this using something like the football leather instead of lizard.

@George Red I really need to try the Forest last. I am a big fan of the Oscar, and they appear to be very similar. Nice boots!

They're very similar. I'd say that there are three main differences: 1) Oscar is longer; 2) Forest is a bit more almond toe'd than Oscar; and 3) Forest has a bit of a higher instep and, in my opinion, fits wider feet better. I own both and can walk for miles in either.

Thanks, that's good feedback. I love the Oscar last, so I may try the Forest in the same size.

some beautiful shoes on here lately, I'm really getting hyped up for my boots..
Quick side question: has anyone ever put some saphir super invulner on their shell shoes?
I guessed it wouldn't be a good idea but have just seen it in hangarproject's list

I'd say a hard no on Invulner on shell since one of the staple ways to clean it is to moisten it and then brush...
