Wow, I got to say these enzo's are pretty impressive. Great bang for your buck for the suede. Granted, if you went calf, GG has a nicer finish and sole but for suede and at half the price you get something remarkably close. Now I just need to decide between flat laces and round laces, thoughts?

These came in this week, apologies for the poor pic quality:



Very pleased with both. The button boots are very comfortable and the the galways are a tank. Button boots are museum calf and hidro suede. Galway is doak and walnut CC with double leather soles. Only wish the doak was a little lighter. Great service from Gabriel in placing the mto's and the Galways came in pretty quickly.

Thanks for the compliments gents. @BootSpell - I placed the order the first week in February. They shipped out last Friday. Arrived this morning. I believe the quoted wait time per skoaks website is about 6 months. So I was a little surprised these came in so quickly. Also waiting on a Dover mto I placed about a week later so hopefully those come in soon as well.

You made my day! At least I can hope based on the arrival of your beautiful boots. I placed my order in the 2nd week of February. I wasn't expecting my Galways till late June or July sometime. Mine are hopefully shortly behind yours. Thanks.

Don't want to rain on anybodies parade, but I think it just all depends. We placed an order for Falkirks in late October, 4 of them came in a couple of weeks ago. Mine still haven't come in yet. It's my understanding the first try didn't pass their QC.

@BootSpell - Hopefully yours come in on the next shipment to skoak. I had similar expectations on when they would arrive.

@RogerP - Thank you sir. Really looking forward to wearing the button boots. Im hoping the doak will lighten to a similar shade as yours but I still love them all the same. I consider your pair the unicorn of Doak/Walnut CC. Your pics helped push me to that make up.

Hey, my Malverns were ordered 1 Jan and I just received those last week. Besides, although the seven going on eight months are trying my patience the Falkirks will be worth the wait. From past deliveries I know the shoes will look fabulous without issues and I currently have the shoe rotation that allows me to truck on while waiting for them.
