I just tried it and it worked for me.

http://made-to-order.bespoke-england.co.uk/ still doesn't load anything for me.

Sorry I thought you meant the site didn’t load. The MTO doesn’t load for me either.

https://www.gazianogirling.com/pages/made-to-order is the updated link that lists all the MTO options (it was based on the original Bespoke England website MTO page). It's under construction at the moment, I guess being updated.

Maybe they have severed ties to Bespoke England who created the site and building a new one?

G&G does a great job maintaining the proportions and balance of the look; however, for me, I can definitely notice a D vs. E vis a vis E vs. F. It feels loose.

Sorry don't have actual dimensions...

When we go up in width we're talking about a quarter of an inch around the whole shoe. Of course length is kept the same as that is a matter of size.

What happenend with Nick? Emailed with him December about an issue I had with a pair, now inquired about MTO - he didn't respond for a week, now realized his email is no longer listed on the website and MTO section is "under construction". Also GG link from bespoke England no longer works ...

We're currently working on the Made to Order site. Should you need anything please email us [email protected]. The process will be a bit more manual for the time being but don't worry; everything is in perfect working order and we're still most happy to tend to all your shoe needs.

Didn't the original post say to contact the store by email or phone or in person?

You can do all of the above my man.

 

[c21ban]

No problem dealing with the store directly if you have an idea of what you want. However, it helped that I could reference the forum and ask questions of those who have better knowledge than I.

I have some special leather swatch goodies cooking up. For my next mto orders

Gaziano & Girling captoe oxfords on GG06 last

So the more I thought about my MTO and after much thought after hearing from the great folks here on the forum, I ended up going with the Isham on leather sole. The fact that I have never seen a shoe from G&G on a Wensum sole and with additional guidance by Neus, I changed my order.

Funny how one can be so indecisive over a pair of shoes! I make snap decisions at work every day that affect many and can’t seem to come to grips over what shoe to choose. Think I will just order a pair of boots with Wensum soles as that should take care of any weather issues.

There is no wrong decision you need to have single leather, double leather & wensum sole. So no worry my friend your work activity is like mine, so you are good to go in all aspect. Plus it’s nice to have all options & you want to show off that fiddle waist that only shines in leather sole

Agreed!

Neus provides excellent advice and knows what she's talking about. You're in good hands there.
