Hi Guys,

Anyone up for a dark grey suede dub monks from Bonafe? On the round last? Anyone? Or Jasper or Moka as below.

Here is a small comparison between the suede colors and what the closest color would be from Edward Green:
6. Bonafe Hidro Moka --> EG Mocha suede
5. Bonafe Hidro Jasper --> EG Mink suede
4. Bonafe Hidro Tabacco --> Between EG Mink and Coffee suede
3. Bonafe Hidro Volpe --> EG Coffee suede
2. Bonafe Hidro Walnut --> EG Nutmeg suede
1. Bonafe Hidro Sella --> EG Nutmeg suede but the Bonafe suede is more towards beige)

Hmm, grey suede sounds awesome. Maybe, although I'd rather have it on the soft chiseled or chiseled last, with fiddle waist.

Wasn't there talk from Leaves about something similar?

Just to add to the confusion, I'd love to get a suede Bonafe Oxford in Tobacco or Jasper. Remember though guys - with the modest 15% premium, don't let the absence of a GMTO quorum stop you from getting the shoe you really want.

Jumper looks sweet Patrik!

Last 804, model number 2364.
UK 7- UK 9.5.


Round, square, chiseled, soft chiseled? Can't seem to find a list of lasts on their homepage, nor a corresponding last on any of your Bonafé shoes on your website.

But the sizes make the point moot anyway. :(

It's the exact same last as on the pictures, it's a rounded almond shaped last.
