Just wanted to mention my EG Westminsters (E888 UK10.5) are for sale, see signature.

Carry on.

Train.

I thinks it's about 30GPB round trip from London. Then take a cab around town. A couple of the shops are just a quick walk from another.

If you are up for it, you can just as easily walk around town as I did. Northampton isn't very large

Excellent, very helpful advice. Walking is allegedly good for you, so as long as the weather is decent, that’s my go-to plan.

Also, call in advance. The EG factory shop is not open everyday. Details here: http://www.northamptonshireleather.com/pdf/factory-shoe-shop-directory.pdf

Great, thanks for sharing that PDF. Good advice on calling ahead - I am assuming much like in some other parts of Europe, the factories shut down for a few weeks in the summer months.

The Aksel's from DSW are Hazel. Got my pair today. Actually a welcome surprise for me - I thought they were going to be dark oak. They are slightly lighter than dark oak. When I say slightly I mean very slightly. I have 9 pairs in dark oak and if you told me these were dark oak I'd probably believe you. There is some variance in dark oak and my Beaulieu's in dark oak are extremely close to these in Hazel. My first pair in Hazel and it is a great color. Thanks for the PSA.

Can you confirm if they are on a 'D' or 'E' last? Thanks!

You have room to pick up a pair in 6.5/7E don't you? Small shoes do have benefits! Enjoy your trip and let us know how it goes. Been trying to convince my fiance to have our honeymoon there...

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

I am trying to decide on the last for a MTO pair of Dovers - any strong opinions of 202 vs 606? Much appreciated!

I got mine in 606 last. I find it very comfortable and suitable for a country walking shoe like this.

Most Ralph Lauren shoes are super narrow, can't wear most of their shoes for this reason

I would go 606

Any reason for the preference?
