@Leaves
, How is the GMTO of the U-wing boot with patina service going? Do you have an estimated charge for the patina service? Thanks.

Would love a pair with Dandy Shoe Care Patina. Not sure whether it would be a bit much though.

Some more views of the Siena patina.

Looks like the Suede Uwing is taking off, but we might do both actually. Let me get back to you.

I would love to join in on the EB MTO action. Is the model below also part of the MTO? I don't have a ref. number, but the model seems rather simple, except the blind stitch.

Does the MTO also cover different thread colors?
Does EB offer pigskin?

Thanks a lot

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

They do offer pigskin but I have no swatches. There's a slight extra surcharge for this though, maybe 1000 SEK or so.
They can use different color thread but we recommend the natural thread as this is the traditional style.

For further specific MTO queries please email [email protected]

I'd definitely be willing to give that Polo suede a try on the U wing boot. Thanks for clarification that the pattern must remain the same but for material choice.

@Leaves

Have you seen a Bonafe suede chukka with norgevese stitch?

This may have gotten lost in the U Wing shuffle. Any thoughts on this?

Nope, can't recall that I have actually.

^^^ Nice to see some shell action happening! I'd be all over this if I didn't already have a Carmina saddle shell derby.

Agreed! I have a saddle chukka so will bow out.

Love this new model. Anyone up for a tan suede version??

Hi @Leaves, dropped you an email re shell NST bluchers. I'm size 7.5Uk in Rain.

Look sharp on this cognac shell, don't think saddle shell will work better than that.

Id be a up for suede for a boot version

Moreso now that the burdeos u wing isn't gaining any traction at all.

It's down to personal preference, of course, but I think my saddle shell derbies are just freaking gorgeous. Definitely want to own a saddle shell tall boot one day. Maybe a jumper.

Agreed. That makeup will look great. Here is a recent saddle batch

I absolutely love the look of the patina version but I just don't know what I would do with it. Heck, it would be so striking that I would want to put it in a display case and never wear it; but, that might actually be part of my hesitancy as well.
