^ those look great. does someone in england save money by purchasing GG in sweden (which would be amazing) or did you buy from Skoaktiebolaget because they were able to get you what you wanted faster?

Beautiful shoes, and the Skoaktie shoe trees are probably the nicest looking on the market

Thanks! I think it's pretty much the same, I purchased this pair from SkoAB because they had the style I wanted and while I live in England I am originally from Sweden and I was back home visiting.

It looks like Skoak doesn't do the force-you-to-buy-an-overpriced-shoetree BS like G&G direct does.

Not now. They will by the end of this month if i recall correctly.
I guess they can sell the stock they have without the G&G shoe trees but once they start to order new stock they will include trees.

Thanks for sharing and thanks for shopping with us!

For MTOs we will sell only including trees. Our stock shoes are available without trees until further notice. We are low on GG stock at the moment but have several restocks incoming.
