Late to the party, but that Balligator boot is absolutely incredible.

Wish I wasn't saving for a honeymoon and still reeling from the ring purchase. Would love to own a pair of those beauties!

Very close to something I would consider. Love most of the deets! My proposal would be:

Entire boot in plum grain (is this even an option?), else plum museum/plum grain would work
Brass eyelets (would look great with that color) or blind eyelets
Single Dainite sole
Cap toe (preferred)

Norvegese looks stunning. 946 last is also sleek for a boot, not something I considered but love it on the EB Austerity I bought.



To my sensibilities, the top 2 elements of your proposal (Entire boot in grain and Brass eyelets) would put this makeup firmly in the country / casual / workbook camp. It reminds me of the Carmina Winter boot GMTO.

My intent was to make this makeup equally at home for business wear, hence my choices.

I have been toying with the idea of a norvogese split toe chukka since I saw Enzo norvogese split toe on your site and boy the antique burgundy from the wholecut just make me wanna MTO it!

Not sure if I am asking too much.....

Never seen anything like that. I'll have to check when they are back from the summer break.

Honeymoon? You can always get married again, but I need those boots in my life ASAP. Doesn't look like the MTO is getting too much interest.
