Yes they will. A crimson, dune, navy cxl and snuff suede will be available in both D & E for the initial release.

Oooh. Might have to grab some E width snuffs. Exciting stuff

Edit: Disregard. I’m going a different route

My new Dune Longwings (B Grades) right out of the box. They look fantastic. Love the color (they appear a good bit darker in this pic than IRL). Thanks, Grant Stone!

I'm also very intrigued about the upcoming loafers. Browsing the Alden thread for so long has made me a fan of loafers, finally. Never was a fan of the style, but I've really come around to them but have yet to acquire any. I imagine a good pair must be supremely comfortable after a while, too.

Forgive me if this has been covered previously, but what leathers and colors can we expect in the GS loafer? I'm sure there'll be a pair for me in the initial offerings. Looking forward to it!

@GrantStone are the suede loafers lined or unlined?

Thanks. Thought I'd read that entire last page, but somehow must have glossed right over the pertinent post.

@GrantStone are the suede loafers lined or unlined?

They are lined. We sampled this pattern unlined to start but felt they were a bit too unstructured for everyday, long term wear. Especially using the materials we are, such as chromexcel. That being said, I really wanted these to have a soft, forgiving feeling and they do. Hopefully we found a good medium.

Speaking of loafers... we made a sample of the new traveler penny in the ivory suede for look-see. It wouldn't be a best seller, but it does like nice and easy to wear. We would like to add this on to the penny program in the summer.

This is a delightful color and very attractive. I'm in!

Sorry, missed this. Are these lined or unlined?

Also, I know this is a super bizarre request, but will you ever consider doing an MTO with a custom cutout in the penny slot?

Love how different the Dune looks in different pics

In the pic they look almost as dark as the Crimson pair I had. But in reality Dune is a nice medium brown that is exactly what I was looking for. A very versatile color for a longwing blucher.

Just curious: what do folks take in Grant Stone Leo last vs. Alden TruBalance? Same size?

Can't speak for all , but mine are.

In our experience, most will take the same size but some would go up into a E width if they want a similar fit. The trubalance is fuller than the Leo.

Same size but Leo is significantly tighter for me. I’m an an E width brannock. I would definitely benefit from E width Leo
