These gold musuem OEII's will go up later this week.

Made on the F last, it is available in size 40.5 - 41 - 41.5 - 42 - 42.5 - 43 - 44 - 44.5 (43.5 already sold out)

Will be available at 550€ excl. VAT with worldwide shipping and 3 piece shoe trees included. PM me if you want to secure your size.

If you can make another one of these in a 43.5, I would probably take it

For a long time we have been thinking to do a Vass GMTO in a medium to dark brown calf leather.

We feel that there is a gap between the Antique Cognac and Dark Brown calf leathers offered by Vass (see the Ultimate Vass Thread also). There are some options for a good medium brown calf, either from Zonta tannery (used by John Lobb and the likes), or through Du Puy (one of the most famous French tanneries, as you all will know). The quality of skin is important, so our final decision will be based on that, but the color should definitely be inbetween Antique Cognac and Dark Brown.

As an interest check, I would like to ask how many of you might be interested! It's only worthwile for us to order our own leather / set up a group MTO, if we can find at least 6 people.

The details would be:

• Our own medium/dark brown calf leather, where quality of skin is most important
  
• Each participant will be able to choose his or her own model. We ask all participans not to go too crazy on the details, but of course welcome individualism
  
• The GMTO would run for about 3-4 weeks, or until all 6 participants are found. Production time is approximately 8 weeks, but can take 10 as well.
  
• Price starts at 550 EUR excl. VAT + the cost of the leather (an estimate would be a total of 600 EUR excl. VAT per pair of MTO Vass shoes, that is approximately 630 USD, but payment in EUR is preferred)
  
• Shoe trees, bags and box are included, as is shipping to the EU and US. Shipping elsewhere will be extra

I look forward to your reactions / responses gentlemen!

Is this still on?

The dark brown calf GMTO has been put on hold until the workshop is able to catch up with the current workload. Sending in different leathers, and all the MTO's retailers send in, puts a lot of pressure on the production.

The Horween Shell cordovan belt GMTO might be a go, we have found a good supplier for the cordovan and buckles, and the manufacturer is already in place.

Please contact us through PM, on [email protected] or here, if you are interested.

We are carefully pricing this at 200USD excl. VAT per belt, with following remarks:

• Available colors should be Bourbon, no.8 and potentially dark cognac
• Shipping is extra but should not be much for a belt
• Belt width can be chosen individually
• Each belt is stitched along the edges, and lined with full grain leather lining
