Id be up for that, depending on the last of course.. i prefer chiseled lasts
I may have to pass on chiseled unless it’s similar to Sailor, I’ve only delve in it recently with MH71 from GG and Tribune 6 from A. Mecc, I’m set for now. Will see how it goes.

I’m fond of the idea, if crowds scream for that I’m in

Actually, I think I’m partial to an all hatchgrain makeup like in the picture - say, an all-hatch 74945, with brass hooks & eyes and a storm welt on Ridgeway…

I'm the guy Soixante found on reddit, I wanted smooth/hatch but willing to switch preference to all-hatch if on 363mod with antique brass hooks and eyes 4x4? 360 storm welt on ridgeway is right up my alley.

Don’t word it as if I found a stray kitten 🤣

Guys I’ll leave you guys to decide, so long as it has element of hatch Armagnac and last’s of 37018/363M/74945. I am fine ;)

Updates; re Bakers Balway

It appears I’ve quoted people wrongly for this because I thought group order price is just -MTO fees, that’s true BUUUUT hides costs is also splitable!

So what once $1260 now is only $895.

Very few brands offer Galway-esque in Bakers, at least one I like the pattern most. So come on board if you are fancy!

Hi Guys,
I am pretty new at SF but I run all MTO´s at Skoaktiebolaget so hit me up with ideas regarding GMTO´s and whatever else.
Think the idea @jischwar posted is so cool. As you can see I did the same style with extended shaft and cuban heel in leather for a customer and it´s a cool combo. To clarify the extended shaft is about 20 cm in total, not extended by 20 cm=) Why not convinced about that jischwar? You will never have the problem of your pants stuck on the shaft edge;)

What's the normal height? Sorry, I did actually read it as adding an extra 20cm 🤣
