Tricker's MTO - Forum group buy

[Renton]



Hey man how you going with this?  Can you get those badboys in an extra wide fitting?

Unfortunately, group orders have to be done in one width. If you can find five other people, you have a chance, otherwise, it's mto for 6 and 7 widths.

I am in

Espresso Scotch Grain (or Black)

Barbour Welt in Natural Finish

Red Lining (or whatever colour you gentlemen prefer)

Any other ideas?

thanks

To be honest the black End Hunting are hard to beat. Apart from that rogue brass eyelet

I agreed with Marc, I am in, but without the brass eyelets.

I'm also in fitting 6, so it looks like I won't be able to do the MTO.

TBH I can't think of anything I would change. Maybe a 91 last as I think it's a little slimmer. But I have nothing against the way the 4444 looks.

Once there's at least six, I'll contact Richard and give youu guys the deets on how to pay him.

For those of you in fitting 6, have you tried on the 4444 last? It is pretty large even by wide last standards.

 

[badeggcat]

I'll not tried the 4444 last. Not sure if I should risk it given that there will be no returns.

Not going for the calf/scotch grain combo like the one from endclothings?

Yes that would be my preferred choice just like the End clothing (without the brass eyelet).

I like you have not tried on a 4444 last. In fact I have never tried on a pair of Trickers

So I am going to find a shop next week!

I know this is a Trickers thread, but I have to ask. What do people think about Sanders Jude? They are very much along the same lines but cheaper.

Remember we need to have six people for each fitting to go ahead.

 

[oven1969]

Confirmation from me.

How about the pull? same as photo? (I like having the black pull, but i can live without it, up to you gentlemen)

 

[badeggcat]

For the guys on 6 fitting, can we have it on the 81 last like the previous group buy? It's a slimmer profile than the 4444.

I'm fine with or without the pull.
