@rwtc - I’d be interested in joining for the Fukuda design. Ever since I saw that boot on IG, I’ve wanted something like it. Very clean and sleek design, especially with the chiseled last. And I agree that the TYE tab is a better option as it’s less likely to get caught on pant cuff. And I love how the strap is set coming through the leather.
That’s 3. I think @vriche posted the Fukuda’s today ?

We just need one more for the GMTO for the jodhpur boots :) We will still need Jackson's okay, pending his confirmation with his factory I think.

In the meantime, Yeossal kindly shared another view of the prior GMTO shoes that I ordered. Looks amazing to me.

Jackson just kindly confirmed that the design for this jodhpur GMTO is definitely doable. If we have one more participant, the 150SGD design fee and the MTO fee will be waived.

The the base price per pair will be SGD $811.21 excluding GST, before optional add-on charges for leather and/or sole options. We will have free delivery worldwide.

If GMTO starts this month, then a pair of the 3-piece lasted boot trees will be included for each order free of charge. Due to the last CGO, the estimated timeline for delivery for this GMTO is approximately 3 months after GMTO closes.

I thought the next GMTO was going to be the Duxton? I'd be down for the Jodphur boot.

Amazing, now we have 4/4! Thanks all.

That's speculation based on their post on Instagram for their next CGO/CGMTO. Under that program, you can only commission one of a few styles that look similar.

For Yeossal's GMTO program, you can create a brand new shoe design for free if you have a minimum group of 4, and it can be self organized.

I will reach out to Yeossal and advise the thread on next steps.

Are there more pics of comparison between Fukuda and TYE's design? I don't have instagram so I can't view the pics.

Has anyone tried out the chore coat in one of the wool flannels? Any pictures of it?

Very tentative interest in the jodhpur - will there be a wide selection of leathers/suede to choose from? Sorry if this was covered already.

And separately- does anyone have any experience of the Yeossal loafers?

Specifically looking at the Halifax (in suede) in SG65 but really unsure of sizing.

I asked Yeossal and Alex advised UK7.5/ 41.

My main other loafers are G&G square Deco in UK8F. I do need a wide toe box.

In laced AMs I have 3 all in UK8E on the soft square (Equities suede, Centurion suede, Decurion II calf) and they fit well.

I have J Fitz UK7E for the Hawthorn and Issaquah loafers.

I have a pair of Aubercy in UK8 / 42 but I've not seen any sizing advice off Aubercy as they are a rare shoe.

Any ideas?!!! I think its between UK7.5E / 41 and UK7F / 40.

Thanks v much ?

I don’t have experience with loafers but my experience has been to size down half from AM/GG/EG for the SG65. However, I did find the instep to be a little too spacious so I had to add a tongue pad (length, heel, vamp, and toebox all fit well). I’d say I have a normal to slightly low instep given my foot length. For a follow on order, Yeossal offered to reduce the instep by 2mm since everything else fit well.

The challenge for you is you may need to size down half for a loafer for a snug fit through instep and vamp (especially suede). So I’d normally recommend 7.5 for you based on my experience, but 7 may be best for a loafer. Although since you need a larger toebox, the 7.5 is probably the right size.

You can specify the leather, last, heel, width, and sole.

As an interim update - Jackson is still in the process of designing the boots. Once he has a photo, he will make available a link for purchase.

See list of available lasts and leathers here:
