Hi,

Anyone know what Lobb Prestige is going for in the London store? I was in the NY store today and the Wroxham, a prestige model, was going for 1,730.00...just crazy!

I would think it would be cheaper to order from London.

Plus $145 in state and city taxes on top of that.

That is a crazy price. I would recommend checking out duncan quinn which carries several Cleverley RTW/Semi-Bespoke styles that range between $700-$1,200 and come with shoe trees. I just picked up a pair of the Semi-Bespoke black calf imitation full brogued oxfords.

Or check out Leffot, who carry Edward Green which run approx $1,100+. I also have them and both of these are wonderful shoes!

The last time I was in Jermyn St, Prestige series shoes were retailing between £800 and £950.

We have a new member, northamptonshoes who has Lobbs for $600, worth a try.

Thanks Bigbris.
Just to add to that- I certainly can get John Lobb at great prices- but limited models sometimes- it varies. If you tell me what you want I will try to source them here (I am in London). I can get Phillip II and lots others- now is a good time. Most are perfect but if they are seconds I wil tell you- these are normally very good with tiny faults.
I can be around $500 and up even but it depends on model.
Thanks.

Yes 'drahluwalia' but I do not use it very much.
I do have 100%+ve feedback if you look.
I prefer to source whichever shoes you want rather than listing lots there.
I will be listing shoes here, however, when I am allowed as I am still fairly new to this site.
Thanks.
