^ Another company. Lighter museum but there are a few makeups I'm weighing so not yet sure.

Wow so there may be a few of us sharing photos of similar shoes on here. So you were thinking 946 chukka with chain norvegese in museum? Which museum were you thinking? a dark one like plum or one of the lighter brown shades?
Was the one that Rider did from his own company or another company?
Yes that would look really sharp. I would be interested in one like that, once I figure out my situation with sizing and actually get one pair. They suggested the chukka for me for now just because it is probably the most forgiving of the boots if the sizing is too wide, but I am definitely a fan of this idea with a museum calf like those.
That would be the 804 but with a slightly higher instep than the 82. Both are elongated lasts.Could you suggest an Enzo last close to EG 82?
No, Bonafé only makes shoe trees of generic fit.Are Enzo shoe trees lasted?
if the instep of eb 804 double monk in UK8.5 fits me well, will a UK9 888 eg Westminster do so?That would be the 804 but with a slightly higher instep than the 82. Both are elongated lasts.

I have a handsewn boot with a shearling lining and I have to say, that thing is warm when indoors. If you're in a place that gets really cold and you walk a lot, go for it - they'll be like rugged fur-lined house slippers. But if you're indoors most of the time, be warned the lining can get toasty!Fur sounds good if your mainly going to be out and about in the cold outdoors. Fur sounds warm, potentially hot, sticky, and sweaty if your going to out and about but in the indoors. Besides this boot looks more like a casual boot and not an outdoorsy rough type boot.
For the EB MTO, I am looking to put together something along the lines of John Lobb's Brooksland
I have not yet seen any balmoral boots on the 946 last (Skoaktie is checking for me!), but I think the chisel toe with bracken or maybe chestnut museum calf would look really sharp.
That would be a pretty good general recommendation but the 804 last from Bonafé is slightly more elongated than the 888 last from EG and the toe box is also slightly roomier.if the instep of eb 804 double monk in UK8.5 fits me well, will a UK9 888 eg Westminster do so?
Bonafé has a lot of boots, we use the 3403 model in our store. For all Bonafé MTO orders, you can specify the last you prefer without any extra charge. The 804 last has a slightly lower instep than the 74945.
