May i know what is GMTO?
Sounds like they don't have many sizes in FS
Guess it will be better to just shop the london sale then :/

Group Made To Order

Its basically a Made to Order (MTO) with a group in order to get a discount compared to doing an individual MTO

The London sale in January was actually pretty good - the HG's I looked at were I think £350 including VAT, so given the VAT rebate and FX of the time about $450. And I'm a UK8 or 8.5 depending on last so not just the odd sizes.

Picture taken a while back, best to visit Northampton on a Friday. Most of the factories are open on Friday

Yea, The most eye catching handgrade shoes which were on sale last time were Audley and Lonsdale.. They were seconds though

Can anyone identify the last of the below shoe? I've done my homework, but I have not been able to figure it out on my own.

Was going to look this up for you and cross-reference against the C&J site, as these are similar to a pair that @Cleav has, but for some reason C&J is turning up on the UAE list of blocked websites. From memory, however, that looks like the 341, and C&J's own version is similar but in golf grain rather than regular calf and doesn't have the exposed heel counters. Nice shoes for $350.

Look like the classic 325 last shape (and toe), used also by other BF models

These are the monks on 341

I agree with you that it looks like 325 based on shape and toe. Any way to confirm with the pictures/numbers I provided?

Only asking C&J, those numbers are similar to the writing on RL Marlows etc shoes with no last number clearly written.

Thanks. I'll stop by the NY store in the next few weeks. The semi-annual sale should be coming up soon, I'll try to time it with that event.

Hi

Just curious. How much should a pair of Coniston subs go for? They're slightly used but I'm not even sure how much a "new" pair of subs would be.


Thanks.

There's a semi annual sale at the NYC store? What kind of discounts are there on the non-MTO stuff?
