Sign me up if it's a chukkah on Ben.

Does anybody have experience with the ben last? I'm worried that it might look a little stubby, but the New Rey is way too narrow. Hatchgrain chukka would be the sechs.

Edit: Saw some photos on Google. We need the Ben!

 I am torn between a wholecut and a chukka boot; Chukka most likely will be in the Ben last as I like the chiselled look. For the wholecut, I am trying to have an existing last modified for this MTO so that it will be along the lines of a G&G.

But maybe I'll offer it in 2 designs so you guys can choose =)

I am interested in chukka like GG Arran or Silverstone from EG. I would prefer the area around ankle to be unlined. In my experience these chukkas are much more comfortable than fully lined chukka. Also 3 eyelets instead of 2. Please no purple lining. Everything else is open for discussion.

^ Agree.

Thanks in advance.

Agreed. The Arran is a great looking chukka, though I couldn't argue with a hatchgrain wholecut. This is from Rugged Old Salt:

I fully agree, and there is nothing stopping two MTOs at the same time. Personally, I'm looking for people for the chukka.

Definitely add me to the list if this one goes ahead.
