Beautiful shoes, that sienna hatch grain looks pretty different from the 'regular' sienna hatch grain. Maybe this is due to the way Passus finishes it? In fact this looks more like the Arlington leather also from Horween...Allow me to share my splendid Tom 2-eyelet Derby in Horween Russian Hatch Grain; simply perfect !!!

Those are beautiful. My guess is that they do not come in g or h width.
I would like to thank everyone very much for their help and support!I confirmed with Rezso that while F width is standard, H and G are available.
Hi @rezso.kuti! Great to see you here and congratulations on the new venture.
What can you tell us about your last-maker and lasts. In particular, I'm curious if you have a last similar to the Vass F or St C Classic.
Hi @Mr. Six, welcome to our thread. Thank you for the question. Our last is closer to Vass F last but the technology is closer to St C. We used to work together with an Italian company. We developed two lasts together with them. We are working on a 3rd one as well.Hi @rezso.kuti! Great to see you here and congratulations on the new venture.

Hello @BColl_Has_Too_Many_Shoes Yes, indeed. Not the best time to start a new venture, but when we started in the previous year, it looked like a very promising timing. Now, despite this pandemic, we are working and planning.Congratulations and welcome! Probably not an ideal environment for beginning a new venture, but it nonetheless provides us an opportunity to get to know the company.
Mr. Six inquired about the lasts, and to jump off that sentiment, can you also shed some light as to what materials will be used (i.e. leather stiffeners, heel counters extending to arch, machine or hand stitch soles etc etc).

We make our shoes only by hand. No machines are involved in our production. Hand lasted, hand sewn, hand welted, etc. We use JR leather as a heel counter which extends to arch, leather stiffeners. Hand-stitched soles. Only the best, JR leather soles.

Thank you, far too kind Lower instep? I'll suggest trying first our last 2000. Similar sizing to the last 1000, with a slightly asymmetric form. It has a lower instep...Rezso, these are stunning models. Which last would work for those with a slightly lower instep?
And as always, if you have questions left, don’t hesitate to share it with me!Thank you!

Custom orders are the soul of our business. We'd like to offer more than changing the last or the color of the shoe. You can combine the details, or change patterns. There is no extra charge for built-in metal toe plates etc. Neither for extra polishing or different shine. Currently, we offer 3 types of leather. French box-calf, suede, and Horween Russia Calf hatch grain leathers. The first two are at the same price. The Horween hatch grain is for a touch higher price available.Thank you for your response Rezso. Sounds good thus far from a craftmanship perspective. Very impressive.
As for the MTO, is there an associated fee? Different leathers for the offering?
