The single dainite sole is indeed great, such thinner compare to the dainite soles I have seen.

I think the well polished state of the shoes hide a bit of the mottleness.

Latest acquisition, a pair of Old English II in plum museum calf, F-last

that's nize

 

[gyasih]

Those came out remarkably well, JI.

I think yours is a little less mottled than my pair. But I don't know what tannery my leather came from.

 

[Mr. Six]

Nice pair of OE IIs! An oxblood pair is next on my list, I just can't decide between F and U.

 

[Junior]

What is the approximated turnaround time for mto?

The current price list can't be posted often enough so here it comes again.

I just did my wire transfer for my second set of orders, I'll let you know how long Rezso says it will take.

I would use plum in any instance that burgundy is ideal as well.

@j ingevaldsson

Your plum has the regular VASS leather finish correct? I ask because I know Italian Polish is a finishing option, but don't know if it's of any benefit from just polishing the shoes yourself at home...

Thanks everyone!

Jubei: These are standard leather finish yes, I polished them myself. Don't think Italian polish go very well with their museum calf.

Wurger: I think single Dainite-soles are very underrated. I definitely prefer it in most cases, also for boots, since the shoe gets more elegant and more comfortable IMO, but still can be worn pretty much all winter here in the southern parts of Sweden.
I've polished them with neutral cream and polish, except on the toe cap where I also used some black, so haven't changed the color that much overall. But the glare might make it less prominent in some pics.

About five weeks by my recent experience - slightly quicker than ordering Meerming from stock!

 

[JubeiSpiegel]

Direct from VASS is evidently a bit quicker for MTO. So it makes sense that proxy will take a bit longer.

Man, i am so looking forward to my first pair. I have a feeling it will be a Pandora's box for me...

That pair of Vass museum calf is just sublime.

Rikod has like the exact same thing. I'm not sure which model he used but I think this is the picture.

It's very nice and I'm thinking of doing that next myself.
