The Zuglets think fall is a piece of cake - they are ready for a badass winter.  Bring it.


My zugs have developed quite an attitude they refuse to come out of the box for anything under at cat 4.

The three I can imagine getting in Rosewood CC now are:

Nevis
Dover
Galway

Since I have the Galway in Zug this probably won't happen.

Since I'm getting a Dover in Mahogany CC this may not happen.

However right now I'm determining whether to get the G&G Thorpe vs the EG Nevis. Sure wish G&G Thorpe would come in Rosewood CC. However I'm just not as confident about the fit on the G&G Thorpe.


Come on buddy - Thorpe GMTO is calling your name!!!

No doubt it's calling, but I've yet to figure out what I want to do and I already have a number of other things in the works. Besides I'm unsure about fit and I really want something in Rosewood CC. So unfortunately it's just going to have to wait for now anyway.

It doesn't solve your other wants, but I wouldn't worry too much about fit...just take your EG size. With an MH71 shoe and boot, I can say as usual, the boot is slightly more roomy and forgiving than the shoe.

I would strongly advise against doing this. @dddrees what are your other sizes? Maybe we can offer some guidelines.

This makes sense in regards to boots using the same last being wider. I know this jbecause of the Galway and the Chelsea I have both on the 82. I appreciate the help you and @laufer are offering in regards to sizing,however fit is not my only concern. Right now I''m undecided as to the Nevis in Rosewood CC or the Thorpe and until I can determine what I want most I won't be moving forward.

Thanks for trying to help however.

The Nevis in Rosewood is awesome. That is my recommendation. I do not like the sweeping stitching line on the shaft of the Thorpe at all, but that's just my opinion.

@ddd, I vote Nevis. I am debating this vs halifax for my next purchase. I have most of the EG staples covered so I will have a little fun with my next mto.
