The Burgundy Utah GMTO reached 18 people, so if we can get the same for Navy, it's a definite go. I just talked to the tannery and they're up for producing a small batch of navy utah. @op131 and @Schweino have been big supporters of the idea, so let's see if we can get the ball rolling.

We'd need 2 models, or 3 maximum to reach the required 6 participants per model.

The Chukka with buckle, and Halway (bi-material or plain) are two models that received some interest already. I am going to keep score of these, so please comment below if you're interrested.

So far we have:

1) Chukka boot with buckle: @acapaca

2) Halway Field Boot (assuming we all can agree to the same setup, either full-utah or bi-material): @Schweino , @Encore , @krspdla, @op131

Anyone else interested in joining, or who would like to propose a third makeup? The George SpTD for example, or as mentioned a Penny loafer?

I'm in for the buckle chukka.

Tempted by the Navy Halway, but only if final makeup needs to be different enough from the Black Utah Halway to justify it for myself. Would prefer bimaterial. Utah +delapre doesn't sound too bad.

Adding @tinitini and @WhyUEarly to the list, 7 people total:

1) Chukka boot with buckle: @acapaca, @WhyUEarly

2) Halway Field Boot (assuming we all can agree to the same setup, either full-utah or bi-material): @Schweino , @Encore , @krspdla, @op131, @tinitini

Ah man, the newsletter for the upcoming sale brought back painful memories. Bought 4 or 5 pair at amazing prices last year and they were all stolen out of the trunk of my car. They were only in there still because I was planning to photograph them soon. Lesson learned: stop waiting to take f*cking pictures and wear your damn shoes.

Still wonder about what home they eventually went to...

I took @Notch advice and that size fits perfectly. I am normally a 9.5E/10D and find the 9UK fits great in the Chukka boot. May be different for the shoes.

Although, in your pictures for the toe room, it looks like the round last gives you a proper amount of room. I don’t know how your toes don’t feel crammed in the front of the second picture, that looks like about 1/4 or so of room. Ouch

You need to be fluent in English to discuss shoes fit.
It's not about me
Everyone has different preferences, I try to choose shoes so that they look great after a few years, of course, not at the expense of comfort.
And can use a different principle of sizing, without bothering with width, size, last, leather, etc... shoes do not fly off my feet when walking, so my size, everyone has their own preferences...

18 people and some of you were wondering if I still had "it".
No further questions your honor...the defense rests .

Possible but we would need a minimum of about 10 people (probably easy). Purchasing a minimum of Aurum level footwear, preferably Bespoke (not so easy). That's how much those boys in China purchase .

Actually, he gets about 20 to 25 Bespoke orders per visit. He was doing me the favor of setting the bar at only 10 orders to get the ball rolling.

I was under the impression you need 10 more Aurums?

I could potentially pick up 2, but then that would eliminate 2 ideas from other makers I had not used (but want to).

Just have them in different colors. You gotta look at the bright side, if you get the same model from different makers, that helps you with examining the differences between the 2 makers!

That is true actually.
