The grail, of course, is the Lotus veldt boot... I've a couple of pairs that date from the Second World War and both are still going strong. Nothing even remotely dressy about them, though...

Loving all the Galway and Veldt coverage here.
What about these?

I think these have been described as a shoe version of Galways, made for Holland. Closest EG model i can find is Dundee.
As they are 11F they are a bit too wide for me. As you see, never worn but older and even as new shoes have a great patina and Medway soles.

I will try to get some better quality pics up when I have some down time.

Is there anything special about the laces EG uses? I bought a pair of RL EG shoes and they have these stupid leather tassels on the ends of the laces, so I'm going to replace them, but wasn't sure if there was any compelling reason whatsoever to seek original EG laces or just get whatever the shoemaker happens to have that are the right length?

Just your standard waxed cotton laces...nothing special at all.

Although I'm sure someone here on SF will call you out if you didn't use OEM laces.

I just bought a bunch of laces from AFPoS recently actually. They have flat, rount, and funky colored ones.

Really nice laces. The round boot laces are very similar to the ones supplied by EG.
