I am so there. I'm thinking of a pair of something in midnight blue on the 888m, though I have no idea what. Any ideas? Does anyone else have an EG wish list and if so, what's on it?

They are such a nice shoe, how much do they cost?

Sounds like 'Hayes' which is a handsome shoe. Congrats.

I believe it was the Hayes, but I did something custom: I either had the broguing extended around the ankle at the top of the shoe *or* added the larger, more ornate medallion they have - I don't recall. When they come, I will of course be posting pics.

I look forward to the pics.

I did something similar with the Hughes:

jjl5000, both those Adelaides are awesome! Btw, any idea as to why u-throats are also called Adelaides?

 

[jjl5000]

Great question Wes.

I have no idea but suspect one of our resident experts might be able to shed some light on the matter.

And they look great!

Mine are also Hughes (what is the plural of Hughes?), but without the toe cap (which I assume is your modification) and I added the medallion from the Grant.

Does anyone have pictures (or a description) of the new "Chameleon" leather from EG? The "Twilight" pictured above is also beautiful.
