As for me, I am falling in line and ordering a pair of G&G Russian reindeer G&G (from the sunken Meta Catherina), with as much fiddling to the waist as possible and a 2 1/2 inch heel Cuban heel.

Not a G&G fan, tho Medward's pair are nice.

Not feeling the, "I wish I was a wee bit taller" heels and some of the extreme chiseled toes.

How many people can get them before we tip over into "overrhyped"?


I feel there is a big love /hate thing going on with G&G. they seem to have a different take on UK styles than we are used to. It is not my taste on the whole but I do respect an alternative idea in the market ,so I wish them well.

some of the G&G models i've seen look pretty nice, and with the vast majority, you might as well buy a pair of Louboutins.

there was actually a big hype a few years back and it looks like kind of a revival among the bespoke clients on sf.

i am not too fond of their stylistic approach, but the workmanship is on a high level. it's good for the mix.

The workmanship is top level...

I do prefer their more conservative lasts without their signature uber chiseled toe..

Are you really thinking of ordering Russian Reindeer G&G's ?, I have some in the pipeline already, he said he could only make one pair, or maybe that was just to add to the mystique and pricing of these damn skins
