JM Weston appreciation thread

[Louis_HK]

No they did not. Nor did I encourage them. I have a real problem fitting shoes- I
wear 9 4E running shoes, so I would want to try them on. The 71/2 F was the
sales persons estimate after measuring my feet and inspecting the pair of Ludwig
Reiter derbies I was wearing which are UK 9. I since learned that the London Store
is closed along w/ the Ludwig Reiter shop nearby.

Maybe a quick hop on the Eurostar to Paris someday?

Lightning speed from S24.com
Got them this morning after only 3 days, all the way from Paris
The total was US$599 plus free shipping

Unfortunately these has to go back, See the right shoe?
The tip is damaged for whatever reason, might be damaged in transit?

Prices have gone up for quite a number of items in EU's Weston online store,
knew it will go up but didn't expect to be so soon.😭

I just passed through Jermyn Street today, the JM Weston shop is still there and open for business.

The Ludwig Reiter shop near Hanover Square has long gone, I don't think they ever got themselves really established.

I am 6000 miles from Eurostar in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Weston is at the top of my list when I hope to get to Paris later this
year.

I also had to get a pair of these. They were incredibly in demand this summer.

Finally it took almost 2 weeks for 24s.com to process the refund. Obviously the lot of the Beechnut suede must be seconds. They were off the shelf now.

wrong thread sorry

I’m thinking of getting some of the new loafers in the MTO section, but I cannot find any reviews of the last or the leather. What do you guys think? I have a pair of boots in the hok last that fit me well. Which of the leather offerings you think is more interesting? I was gravitating towards the gaucho waxy kudu. Anyway, whatever info or opinions you have will be appreciated!

i have 6 pair of mto 180’s. The key is knowing your size, if you do not already. Leathers, skins are top quality, some say not as good as Edward Green though I only have one pair of EG’s so I can’t really comment. My contact at Weston is Charlotte, whose communication has been impeccable

Nearly every Weston shoes are 70% off.
If you happen to have access to a freight forwarder, this is a great chance to shop for some Weston. They only ship within EU, so you need a shipping forwarder to ship them back to wherever you are. But beware, Printemp use extra large box to ship, so if your forwarder use volumetric calculation on your shipment, better ask them to get rid of the shipping box.

Damn, my initial goal was “no new shoes until 2023” but I really couldn’t resist these brown 180 in my size at 215 Euros… Thanks for the link and “vive SF”!

Bought this on streetsale for 50$. This is my first pair of J.M.Weston. I see that there are 2 loafer models on their web, Le Moc and 180. Does anyone know if this is Le Moc or 180, I don't know the difference between them.

This should be 180, if you could still read the print/written info on the side of the shoe.
I think a resole and a major overhaul will definitely bring these back to life.

This is 180 for sure
