They’re gorgeous and much more clearly green in person as I’m sure yours are. 115 last which I understand to be close or identical to the AE 511, so fit is not perfect, but I’ll make it work because shell.
Yup. I've got a pair in caramel shell.

Oh my gosh. Those loafers are PERFECT. I love their pinch loafer.

Thanks guys! Rancourt is amazing to do MTOs with. Such great service. I got a few more MTOs already in work.

As far as the Color #4 pricing, I don’t believe that there was any up charge. Just had to wait for Horween to fulfill the order of delivering the material. Which I got lucky, because when we ordered, the had some material about a month away from completion.

It was almost cold enough this morning to give the Shearling Lined Rancourt boots purchased last spring their first outing. Needs to be about 10 degrees colder (Upper 20's) then they get their maiden voyage outside of the house.
