Still debating as the Carmina  Longwing is also a contender and its in brown which is my first preference.

Decided to spice up my black Alex wholecuts. I havent used these for over a year, since black is too boring for me.
I've just applied some neutral cream to seal the color and now they need to sit for a day, so there's no wax on these....yet

All  cheviot longwings are still in the factory; just got a confirmation from Jermyn Street flagship store.

Jermyn Street are full of **** then, ha. The Birmingham shop has them in already.

Skye 4 is lovely, by the way. Pics tomorrow.

I am looking to get the Brecon and Harlech boots, both on the 341 last. I need some advice on sizing. I'm a US 12D on a brannock device, an 11.5D on the Barrie last is loose fitting, and a UK 10.5E on the 325 last (Coniston) fits well. The c&j sales associate said the 341 and 325 fit similarly. Should I go with a UK 10.5E or 11E? Any other sizing advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
Yes, I stripped the toe and dyed it pink and 4 shades of purple.
Although when the cream is applied it becomes much darker so it looks more or less just dark purple .

I have both the Harlech and Coniston in the same size. To me, the Coniston has a rounder toe and I might have been able to size down a half, but not so on the Harlech. I would say that if the Coniston fits snug on you, you might consider going with a 11E UK for the Harlech.

Received my first pair of C&Js on Thursday. Picked up the Peal & Co. perforated cap toe oxford on the 240 last from Brooks Brothers during the Friends and Family Sale.

Can't wait for the full-fledged maiden voyage on Monday!
