Is there a consensus yet on the split toe boot?

 

[steveyoo1983]

so far 3 interests in navy shell version (possibly one more confirming tonight) and 2 in cognac shell at this point!

COGNAC SHELL!!!

COGNAC SHELL!!!

 

[justinkapur]

I think these would be better in light cognac shell. I think navy is better suited to a captoe boot. I just saw an austerity wingtip boot in navy and that wasnt bad either.

what's the deets on the potential split toe cognac boot? last, sole, eyelets

Last is soller as its the only one that does a split toe boot. We are thinking 7-8 eyelets with potential speedhooks. I think dainite would be sweet but I am open to suggestions

I still think the split toe would look amazing in navy shell....here are some pics of my new navy shell jumpers...

We should have jubei come up with a mockup in navy to see. I just dont see it in navy

 

[stmaier]

If it is going to be 7-8 eyelets then I would prefer speedhooks as a matter of functionality. Agree on the Dainite or perhaps a York sole. If jubei is kind enough to do a mockup in navy could we also see the light cognac version. I believe the current mockup is Saddle. There is a nice example of light cognac on the carmina website.

I know that the Carmina factory is on vacation but we should probably come to a consensus soon for the split toe boot if we are shooting for a winter delivery.

Agreed.

The numbers are still the same.

3 interest in Navy shell. and 2 interest in Light Cognac shell at this point.

Will they give you credit toward 6 if it is 3 & 3 where only the color is different?
