Here's a pair of EG Newmarkets I just got. It's 9/9.5C on the 808 last in black calf.

Andrew,

Geez you're fast with the shoe threads!

Yes, they're MTO, and the 808 is the last that best fits my narrow feet. Their saga were documented in the EG flaw thread I posted a while ago.

Yeah, those are stunning boots. I would kill for a pair in dark oak, but even a brown shoe lover such as myself can see the appeal of those chelseas in black.

Before SF, I never had any ankle boots. Now, I have three going on four. Should've left a blank space for the next pair (JL Brooklands in chestnut museum calf, 8000 last). Here are RM Williams Yearling Craftsman in chestnut, Alden chukka in dark brown suede, and Schubert in dark brown:

Confession: Before I joined, I could never see myself wearing boots, and I thought you guys were idiots for calling it "shoe Appreciation". Now, this thread makes my pulse race, and gives me a stiffy. It might even be having an effect on my relationship... my gf scoffs at me when I start talking about boots I like, and want. I keep saying to myself I won't need her anymore when I finally have all the boots I want. I'm planning to buy some RMW's next month as a grad gift to myself, but I fear things might start snowballing from there into happy stylish feet, and empty pockets. Is this healthy? Is there a support group for boot-Appreciation addicts, and wanna-be boot-owners?

Yes...dark brown museum. I liked the red museum, but thought this color would be more versatile.

Do you all mean the 606 last on these Newmarket boots?

All I could find is a 606 which is the slightly square last. I REALLY like this one and would order a pair if there was such a thing as a 606 last.
