I would say it is possible since Whiskey cordovan is possible.

We can work on the specs and I can get a quote after.

For now the specs is standard except for the possibility of Ridgeway sole. So:
Brown scotch grain
360 storm welt
Eyelets and hooks
323 last
Pull tab
Sole?
Brown edge

Just for my understanding the "scotch grain" leather proposed in this makeup is *not* the one typically used on Galways - the typical is "country calf" which is less grainy and is used for other models like Brecon.
Scotch grain is what is used for Coniston and Skye. Am I correct?

If that is so, then my mistake. So, the stock model leather is what I am referring to, be it country calf or otherwise.

I am open to suggestions for spec changes but the stock specs would be fine too.

Hey guys just FYI; C&J typically requires a 12 person group minimum to do a GMTO. That’s the only way I know of to avoid the significant up charge incurred when doing a C&J MTO.

Thanks for the reminder.

Since the Whiskey Galway gmto fell through, I am going to see if the calf version will have better results. Arguably, the grain version looks better than the shell.

If doing a GMTO, why not use make it grainy ? Should be pretty cool .. I ll be in as long as it is not the stock leather.
