Hello friends. I'm considering Brogue's Ruby Hill boot. Could someone confirm that the 379X last is not available in C widths (or narrower)? I'm a C width on all other lasts, but I'm wondering if I could get away with a D width here. Thank you!

Thanks so much. Sadly, I have heard that Hunting green suede is no longer available for shoes or boots. Others can shed some light on this.
That's what I heard as well. I may have tracked down a pair, hopefully it plays out.

Very nice tie!

Thank you! My only 100% wool tie; probably one of my favorites because it reminds me of old films and the Golden Age of Cinema.

It's a Sam Hober.

Scored these beauties as seconds from TSM. Appears to be the Calton Hill Balmoral from Brogue. Only flaw I can find is the semi-circular surface scratch near the facings on the right shoe. Seems to want to crease a little at that point, so I’ll try the pencil trick to set the crease.

Loving the makeup!

D & E only.
random question - has anyone ever see any LHS make ups with a neo-cork sole? or is that pretty much reserved for boots?
You won't find Neocork on loafers (too heavy). It's mostly for boots and shoes that are appropriate for the sole.
