The u-cap derbies on the bottom look like an interesting design. I'd like to see more of those. The single monks also look really nice.

New Templeman shoes posted on his IG. I recently bought something similar from Edward Green, and while I like the style, I think suede is the way to go. Softens the unusual look.

I don't like loafers, but those are pretty sweet. Nick's work really is great.

The swoop of the lines on the sides is really nice.

My first pair of shoes from Nicholas. Very happy with them and a pleasure to meet and work with Nicholas throughout the whole experience. Not sure my photographs can do them justice.

I'm currently getting a pair of JLP bespoke shoes made but I'd love to try Nicholas in the future especially with his prices being about half of what JLP is charging. Only problem is he tends to travel US during the time of month when I can't travel.

He's looking to break up his travel schedule, so he'll actually be in the US something like once every couple of months, visiting just once city at a time. Makes the trips more frequent, although each city will still see him only twice a year.

If he can actually hit up a city on a weekend that's in the middle of the month then I could make it happen. Main reason why I went with JLP as my first bespoke (other than I've a big fan of JLP and always wanted to do it) is because Paul Wilson travels to Houston 3-4 times a year from NYC which makes it much easier to do fittings.
