The shoetrees will be in black, but Emil thinks we can select a color closer to Mahagony or a Bone color.

Alright boys we have a price. So, as you are all aware Emil and Winson Shoes have been busy with the new venture.
Fortunately, we have a price for the shoes.
For the following details:
Model: Thick strap Loafer
- Line: Grandeur
- Last: Aurora
- Leather: Mahogany Lama leather
- Construction: Hand Welted (flat welt)
- Apron style: Rounded 2 piece apron with edges meeting, simulating a 1 piece apron
- Waist: Beveled Round waist
- Sole: Standard Single JR Leather
So again, no fiddleback waist or blind waist but it will be rounded beveled waist.
So you can say the sole will be like this from the profile and overhead view

While the rounded underside, like this
View attachment 1462750
Of course, the upper last shape will be the Aurora last

So the price would be $420 with the lasted spring loaded trees $500.
If you opt for a hinged hollowed tree, you are looking at $550

Thats pretty amazing. Thanks for organizing this.
Do we email Emil now?
Well we need 4 firm responses. You and I make 2. I believe @boot_owl should be good to go as well for this configuration.
firm as a bag of sand
what kind of lasts do you find work best with flat feet? More arch support?
I’ve never actually had a problem with my feet until I got my vass shoes. Because of the high instep and narrow heel, they gaped quite a bit. I haven’t had any extra arch support on my shoes aside from what comes out of the factory. I’m hoping since this is an asian shoe maker, they’ll be in more my ballpark.
would be interesting to see if maybe an arch support addition and a tongue pad resolve this

Oh - do we want his brass toe taps?I guess we can call it the Lama full strap loafer GMTO.

I personally prefer it but I’m sure I can convince him to do it just for me if you guys don’t want itNot a big deal for me. If you guys want it, sure. If not, sure.
