C&J x RL Marlows today… the double leather sole on these seem bulletproof!

View attachment 1803108

If they are shell as they seem then ,yes, the soles are bullet proof because C&J use oak bark tanned soles on their shell cordovan range.

Anyone have the Belgrave please and your thoughts would be appreciated on quality for the price, chestnut antique colour and fit on the 337 Last
Im a UK10 in Cheaney so what size would you recommend please

I do and I like the 337 last very much. I suggest you take the same size in C&J albeit you haven’t shared which Cheaney lasts you’ve got.

A year ago I came across those special order boots at a large german retailer. They seem be to quite rare.

C&J Tintern 2 in dark brown Willow grain on last 367 on the city sole. Handgrade! The leather is great.
I got them for a steal because it was the last pair of that model. I should make photos where one can see the whole boot.

And a summer chukka boot.
C&J Chukka, unlined, in tan pebble grain leather on last 200 on the city sole. From 2020, obtained from C&J France, from the French collection. One of my most worn chukka boots.

Which retailer was it? Boots look great.

Which retailer was it? Boots look great.

It was Görtz. They mostly have low quality main stream shoes. But some of their shops have some "luxury" shoe shelves. The shop in Cologne has quite a C&J selection. However, I found the Tintern in their web shop. You can still find the model on their site through a google search - but it is completely sold out. I got the very last pair. The only other retailer having a model called Tintern is Upper Shoes, but they do not have them in Willow Grain. And on another last.

This is my first pair of CJ’s and I’m stoked! Harvard’s from Bodileys in dark brown shell. However I am wondering if these loose threads are cause for concern. there’s a few more I didn’t photograph.
I’m less concerned about the finishing on the edges or the puckered stitching but thought I’d include those too.

should I just cut off the threads or burn them off?

Loose threads are common and nothing to worry about. If they bother you, cut them shorter and burn the end

I agree that I would not worry about them and simply cut them off. But they are not common with C&J. I have a lot of shoes and boots from them and have never had any loose threads.
