What's the going rate for Gaizano & Girling shoe trees? I got quoted £180.00 [COLOR=FF00AA]incl[/COLOR]. VAT. So, £150 without VAT. This is direct from them as well. Also, they now offer them in red which I'd love to see pictures of. Any one has a source for their shoe trees at a more reasonable price?

If you're in the US try Leffot, I was quoted a couple of months back $150 for some shoe trees.

Leffot has some limited sizes:

Skoaktie can order I believe and their trees are actually pretty close fit for G&G too

Thanks gents.

Unfortunately Leffot doesn`t currently carry my size or last.

I did previously contact Skoaktieboleget but they don`t carry them.

Email then, they can have any size made to order from GG. They quoted me the same price as their trees online.

Is it just me or the more I look at these kinds of shoes, the uglier AE/alden/c&j benchgrades/etc look.

I ordered 3 pairs of trees from Leffot last year. One pair was in stock the other 2 he ordered. It took about 3 weeks for them to arrive but it couldn't have been any simpler.
