Moo is correct. Pic compares the AS 724 last to the EG 888 - similar shape

Thinking about these - any thoughts?

Different, but very nice.



Although there are three different things going on here, I get the feeling it's not that easy to tell.



Besides I like the colors and textures they've incorporated here.


Who makes them, and where did you find them?

^ Saint Crispins model 401. I agree with you-it's a pretty cool boot. I just wouldn't pay SC prices for them

Thank you sir.



Too many boots, so little time.


Ah, there's always next year. LOL

certainly not for the shy - but you like rather exhuberent boots, no?



One too many colors/textures to me



IMO, not too garish at all.
Not a big fan of what appears to be scotch grain but those are sharp.
You could always darken the burgundy a touch if needed.

Great jeans boot i think.



jh, I'll be the one to say that those boots are atrocious. :embar:



Not feeling those at all, JH.
Similar to those really odd design Vass that Ascot was selling a while back. Looks like someone's gone absolutely mental with MTO options.





Thanks for input,, gents. I'm clearly ambivalent or I wouldn't have asked the distinguished panel. Looks like a pass, even at 20% off.

Full steam ahead....deets? Love what's going on in the instep undercarriage 'flying buttresses'.


Blurb from seller:
"SAINT CRISPIN’S 401
Oxford lace up boot brogueing (MTO Paris)

For my lace up boot model on the classic last, I selected tri-leather combination: the upper in refined cedar suede, the rest is Russian inspired grained calf & burgundy box calf mixed.
Comfortable and casual chic."

Call me crazy, but I luv em.


I may not have the occasion to wear them very often, but then again when I did it would certainly be a special occasion.
