Tan Kudu looks great.

Excited for those ishams. Probably can't do the chukkas because nobody needs two kudu shoes

Model: Arran (Chukka Boot)
Last: MH71
Colour: Tan Kudu
Sole: Danite

I'm in if it's brown hatch, but not for kudu. If the majority wants kudu, however, you guys please go ahead and I'll sit this one out

What he said.

I'm glad an Arran GMTO is getting some love, but i have no opinion on the kudu and can't be sure one way or the other if i will like it.

If this thing gets off the ground in something other than Kudu, somebody please drop me a line. Would prefer smooth calf of some kind.

Doesn gaziano and girling have a model similar to the Halifax? That's like Arran and Hove combined.

My Gaziano & Girling made to order shoes have arrived! Very impressed with the quality, packaging, and overall styling of these two pairs. This is my first order from this company - I have yet to wear them outside but hopefully they will be as comfortable as they look stylish!

1st Pair: "Grant" in Vintage Rioja on TG73 last. I used the "Hayes" medallion instead. 5 eyelets instead of 6.
2nd Pair: "Uppingham II" in Midnight Blue on TG73 last. I deleted any brocade, medallion, etc for a more modern look.

G&Gs blue is amazing, great styles, both of them.

Congrats. Gorgeous shoes.

Do you know if G&G works with crup (crust?) leather for all its shoes? I feel like their finishing is always on point.

I believe most of their non-textured calf leathers are crust, with the exception of expresso calf (which feels like a box calf), and possibly black calf (which i think Dean mentioned is a semi-crust)...

question in light of those beautiful blue shoes above, and the two eyelets.

Does that make it slip on tighter and more like a loafer that has some stretch to it on the tongue? I've never worn a pair just have seen enough pics.

Maybe fit is no different to say a five eyelet shoe, just curious from those that own.
