Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

[ike_hiking_boots]

There was only one Rosewood CC Galway in the sizes I was looking at (6-7). Didn't see any Dovers. I did spot a few Galways in the other sizes but can't say for sure, it was quite packed.

A fair few Belgravias, Picaddilies, Dukes, Newmarkets + plenty of the more formal models.

Great prices for EG! Were there any Dundee, Borrowdale, Caudale or Kentmere there?

The Galway is a winter-conquering field boot that was first designed in 1930 for officers in the British army. As a result, it’s one of Edward Green’s most iconic creations. This model is made using a country calf leather in rosewood, which has a reddish brown tone with a beautifully textured...

Picked up the new waxed suede boots. Should arrive on Wednesday. I’m excited to see what they look/feel like.

Be prepared for a touch longer break in period. And don't baby them - the more they scuff up, the better.

Thanks for the advice! I’m excited to try the 64 last. All my stuff is on the 202 and 82.

For those of you that own the 64, 202 and 82 lasts, how would you say the 64 feels relative to the others?

I have two of the three but have tried on the 64 many times. I talked myself out of purchasing the Galways many times, but still punish myself by trying it on.

Speaking of 64..

If I’m 9.5 on 82 would an f fitting 64 be ok in a 9?

asking for a friend… ?

Personally, I would keep the same size. I tried the 64 in my usual size and found it fine. Were I to have gone a half size lower, would have had a negative effect on my instep.
