The Styleforum x Archibald Sneaker GMTO

[OrlandoMo]

I really want the whole cuts. Something like the Tony of fitzpatrick

Coming soon... just had a chat with Adriano, our craftsman, we’ll start the project asap

This was AT their place?

This was AT their place?

They have a small table on the first floor of their workshop, if they get hungry between a sneaker and a cap-toe. Adriano’s mother brought in a couple of Tortelloni... couldn’t resist

Hadn't checked in for a while! Is it too late to place an order at the special price?

Hi @sjjones1 it is unfortunately. However you might be lucky and the pair you want could be in the padded stock that has been ordered. Best to message customer service and see what is possible.

What's the deal with in-stocks after?

 

[OrlandoMo]

Interested in hand welt dress shoes - could a cap toe oxford be a thing?

We already have some in our collection, what do you think?

The shoes will be available at full price

BTW can anyone let me know when is the plan to ship the first stock?

It may be better to spin off the next GMTO talk to another thread or to an official affiliate thread once those pick up steam, so as not to distract those of us waiting to peruse updates on the sneaker GMTO.

Pics of tortelloni, however, are always most welcome

Hi all it seems your sneaker has made the front page of gq.com. The true spirit behind the initiative and the artisanal craftsmanship which differentiates it was missed but a lot more will be said or understood when these are finally delivered and people try them out for real!

Special thanks to @LA Guy for enabling such initiatives.

Ok, who’s the person who rubs cocoa butter on his feet in lieu of wearing socks??
