I wonder what their construction is, are they welted? If so, it's a relative bargain.

Was wearing these on the weekend and decided to give them some leather food. Thought I'd post a bunch of pics because by far I get the most PMs and questions about these whenever they pop up in a fit.

I never figured out why AS and Tricker's don't get as much love as they deserve.
Particularly from the fucktard buyers for Amreekan depart. store chains

Did they come w/ purple laces? I love the shoes, just not the laces.

Those shoes look so good who cares about the laces.

^^^Ordinarily I'd be put off by the laces, but not with those nice shoes.

I just won these Grenson for Tim Little chukka boots with crepe soles. I bought before from Sarah a pair of TL derbys. I dot not see much difference (except design) between TL and Grenson Rose, the TL are far from Masterpieces in quality, however absurd retail prices (£350-380). Is it only market genius for Tim Little to sell the rebadged Grensons for 1.5x the price?

Nice boots!

You're correct about your Derbies, the TL style Black Sole 5 is the old Grenson Rose style Bayswater on the 96 last.
