+1 on Vintage Rioja. Brilliant colour that!

the Wigmore IS beautiful though.
I'm not familiar with the E&G Gresham.

+1 on the jeans cuffs and the Wigmore (on my to do list). Here's my Greshams on the 888; yup, I know there's no love for black, but I have another pair inbound in burnt pine on the 89.

no worries. they are nice and the leather is excellent. what else can you want more about...?

 

[Mr. Pink]

Nick from Bespoke England had sent me a pair of shoes in the Bordeaux calf to try for size. There was much less red in the color than I expected.

I know, but I like the time value of money in my favor in the meantime.

Great shoes

Thanks so much for your kindly suggestion.
I am a little confused about the color below.
Vintage Rioja, Bordeaux calf, Dark burgundy calf.
What's the difference between them?
I have asked Tony Gaziano, and he said that the Dark burgundy calf is the closest to purple.

 

[medtech_expat]

Here's the vintage rioja, which depending on lighting shows up as dark reddish brown, burgundy, or with the burnishing around the toecap, aubergine. Note: Nick at Bespoke England mentioned that this batch came out darker than usual, so YMMV.

OP's Lobbs are *vicious*

That is all.

Dear medtech_expat,

Thanks for your sharing.
Do you mean that the Vintage Rioja calf, Bordeaux calf, Dark burgundy calf are all the same?
Since at the bespoke of England, I can see Vintage Rioja calf and Bordeaux calf but no Dark burgundy calf?

And I would like to ask for some suggestions.
I already have JLP woodcote in deep blue, Berluti Fil dAriane Evade Oxford in blue gredients.
And I would like buy 2 G&G recently, one is G&G Hove DG70 in vintage oak.
But I cannot make the decision in G&G Carlyle or Grant, both are DG70?
Any suggestion between them?
I would like to buy a black one, or any suggest deep color, racing green?

photos pls
