Outstanding!
Is it still the case that C&J insist on everyone in a GMTO getting the same width?
I am really interested in CC's Harlech shell No.4 design (brass eyelets, ridgeway sole) but in a wider F width https://www.reddit.com/r/goodyearwelt/comments/st73gs/made_to_order_crockett_jones_harlech/
Not sure on how likely it is that 6 people want an F width in this.
I haven't confirmed anything with them.Any chance you confirmed if they can do a GMTO in color 4?
Unfortunately, Crockett & Jones doesn’t carry Color 4, as I also thought this would be a fantastic look for their patterns…Any chance you confirmed if they can do a GMTO in color 4?
Sadface. I wonder if it's generally more rare then.Unfortunately, Crockett & Jones doesn’t carry Color 4, as I also thought this would be a fantastic look for their patterns…

Navy Shell Lindrick update
The following people have expressed interest in a Navy shell Cordovan Lindrick GMTO:
- @Coolhand0302
- @SteveL91
- @shoeinvestor
- @nareichert
- @joecrouton
- @ckchan
- @Crafty Cumbrian (weak-ly interested 😂)
- @alazdi
- @Cronmok
- @Flypaper89
As we add to the group, some changes to the original spec sheet have been proposed for consideration... In the interest of consensus, and in just building the best overall makeup we can come up with, please consider if you have a preference for any of the following specifications:
Eyelets:
- 8 matching eyelets
- 4 speedhooks + 4 eyelets
Hardware (regardless of eye/hook combination):
- matching (navy painted)
- brass hardware (antique or bright)
Sole:
- Double Leather
- Dainite Ridgeway
- Dainite Studded
Just a reminder that the Northampton factory is closed until October 3 for their Autumn break. Upon their return, we will receive confirmation of leather availability and final pricing. I’d like to put the GMTO together without delay, so please consider your interest as a participant in this venture in the interim.
Once all committed participants are identified, I will notify Jermyn Street of our final list, and we will “close” the GMTO. I will provide contact details to the group, and each participant will need to arrange payment and shipping details directly with Crockett & Jones. If not enough participants pay as agreed or the GMTO falls apart for any other reason, C&J will refund payment. But if the GMTO proceeds as planned, then we can expect our boots approximately four months from when the order is sent to the factory (~Jan, 2023).
Please let me know any questions or suggestions either here or via pm - thanks!

I have updated information on the C&J brown shell cordovan Grasmere PTB on 325 last (identical to RL Marlow).
1. We are entitled to the retail price for a GTMO of at least 6 participants.
2. The current retail price is £690 (or £575 ex VAT). (For perspective, the price of a single MTO is £975 (or £812.50 ex VAT).
3. The shoes will be delivered approximately 4 months after the complete order is placed.
4. Shipping to US is £20.
Other pertinent information:
- Six participants is a minimum but C&J is willing to accept any number of orders in excess of six.
- To commence the order, C&J needs the following information from all participants: (a) name and styleforum name, (b) UK shoe size (E fitting), (c) shipping and billing address, (d) telephone number, and (e) whether you want the shoes shipped to you or you will collect the shoes from the store
- For security reasons, C&J desires to take credit card details over the phone. The rest of the information will be delivered to C&J via e-mail. Payments will be processed immediately. If for any reason the GMTO does not go through C&J will refund all payments.
- IF a pair is damaged during production C&J will not remake the pair but will refund the money.
We currently have FIVE confirmed participants ready to provide payment information to C&J. We need just one more to place the order (but even after getting the sixth can include anyone else who desires to participate).

I think the Navy cordovan on the Coniston would be pretty stellar. I’m sure the Lindrick will be lovely, but I think a boot without the brogue work will better show off the blue shell. Congrats to all on successfully completing this GMTO.Hi, wasn’t for me thanks. Seems a goer so well done.
