If anybody on this forum is going to get a shampoo sample it’s probably going to be from me.

Posting some photos I took at the last trunk show.

Thinking about possibly getting this in suede and with a smaller buckle at some point in the future.

Or a suede two-eyelet derby

Haven't worn a chukka in a long time, but I used to often. Maybe I'll get one in suede.

In all likelihood though, I'll prob get yet another split-toe ?. Here is some customer's split-toe in the works

These photos are wildly inaccurate, but some suede colors I thought were nice: Parisian Brown 828, Mink 300, Chocolate 675, Coffee 292, and Fox

Any particular reason you stopped wearing Chukkas? This one you posted certainly warrants a return to the style. It is a beaut.

I used to mainly wear mine with casualwear and my casualwear has drifted from CM over the years. Chukkas don't really feel right in what I wear now.

I have a pair of Saint Crispin's chukkas that I used to wear with sport coats, but just haven't for some reason. I mostly wear my Templeman split toes, Edward Green Dovers, and black Brooks Brothers tassel loafers, at least if I'm in tailored clothing.

Think I actually have two pairs of StC chukkas. Been a while since I've reached for other shoes.
