I was considering a MTO brogue derby from Saint Crispin. But Zonkey Boot comes into my horizon during some research. I saw Zonkey Boot has origin from Saint Crispin. How would you compare these two? Thanks

Extremely similar. Lasts are basically the same. Sizing the same. Style is essentially the same. StCs may have only slightly better finishing, and the overall look is a touch more refined.

If you are able to find them cheaper, which I know you will, ZB is an excellent StC alternative.

Thanks a lot! But it lets my mind falter:)

Are their micro rubber soles basically crepe soles?
How do they perform in slippery conditions? Are they basically crepe soles?
All good questions, that I might be able to answer better, but it’s been August of 2018 since they’ve been in the rotation. I honestly don’t remember but as far as I recall, I’ve never deployed them in wet conditions. I can report that they are not like crepe soles.

I see some seriously discounted NIB pairs on eBay right now. 🧐

Oh, and here's my pair for sale. :)

Not my size but just an fyi, your listing doesn’t have a price on it, and shows unavailable.
