I just received word from Emil. He would prefer to do a GMTO, so all the shoes to be made in the same design, construction and similar details etc.etc. Will try to convince him of the benefits of making this a MTO (garners more interest when guys can do what they wish). If not and this speaks to @acapaca query, you may incur a MTO fee of some sort plus additional fees for a different colored leather to be brought in.
Additionally, he will inquire the price of the actual piece of leather, so we should have more definitive pricing details. Which is undoubtedly as critical as the design aspect.
In any case, let's look at realistically what the shoe may look like. As mentioned, it would be a full strap loafer in Mahagony Lama. The pictures below would more or less be the last shape. I would prefer a rounded toe, to make the loafer less formal, however I won't shed a tear if you all rather keep this chiseled appearance.
The "strap" would resemble Ann's design so it would be on the thicker side versus the thinner variation offered by Winson.
Considering it is a loafer, I figured a standard square beveled waist should be fine.
Saying that, I wouldn't be opposed to a Vibram topy if you guys didn't want a straight leather sole.
More details to follow as they are disclosed to me. Of course, any ideas or suggestions are welcomed and encouraged.
