Wow, really? @NAMOR
 recently did a few MTO's directly with Vass and it took like 8 weeks  or less

Damn you NAMOR. I think the problem with the dub monks was sourcing the new museum calf. I think the original estimate was 3-5 months, but we got an email about delays recently. It's been about 9 months already at this point, and it will probably a few more still.

does vass have three maroon shells?

oxblood / no8 - eggplant
burgundy - eggplant with some red
bordeaux - reddish / rubyish

Osloer boot in navy museum calf with antique edge trim?





or a London PTB in either brown or gold museum calf?

I'd have to see a swatch of navy museum (how deep is the navy), but I love the NST style.

You wouldn't want the navy museum calf on an austerity brogue design? (Shoe or boot) .. like this pair of St Crispin's:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I'd lean toward the PTB in gold museum.

I love StC Burgundy Austerity Brogue as well.

Rezsö said the factory will not shut down this year as they have a ton of orders. Production will slow a bit but it will not stop like it usually does. I am guessing they are staggering vacation for the craftsmen.

I wouldn't mind this Alt Wien in whiskey shell, either. Too stunning.

@SoGent both are gorgeous. could you provide a pic of boot in the wild? are they both on F last?

Love the captoe blucher Roguls posted. Would be interested in a version of that, not necessarily shell. How many are needed anyway?
