    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    I've received my unlined suede double-monks (tobacco, Sineu last) from the last GMTO, and to be honest I am not impressed. These are my 4th pair of Carmina, here are some photos of the shoes unworn, straight out of the box. There is a HUGE color difference on the side of one pair, I think it's...

    How do you know he's associated with this venture? I have been scouring their instagram like a crazed ex-lover and didn't see a trace of him. I know its been years, but I still think about Drew every now and then. Everytime I see someone with a cool leather jacket in fact. This could have been me.

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    Hello everyone, been reading quite a few pages of the Luxire and considering placing an order. For those of you who have sent their own fabric to make a trouser, what lenght did it require?

    I do realize pre-orders aren't MTO but just a thought - would it be possible to ask for a blue suede sneaker with a white leather tongue and heel reinforcement piece?

    I actually had the same target in mind. How does the lisboa last compares to carmina's forest / rain or Meermin's Rui? Also just to be sure, does 11 US = 10 UK?

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    So I contacted Carmina about this and they got back to me: - They currently have a shortage of hands given the success of their MTO option, current lead time is 60 days. - They just hired a new person to answer the email backlog - The cordovan jodhpurs and chelsea will now all feature the V...

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    I have finally received my november-offer MTO only to find out I got the dreaded V version of the jodhpurs which was definitely not the advertised model. Not only do I find it aesthetically displeasing but the V also orientates the creases in a weird way, see how they shape up after only 3...

    Nice, did you order those during the MTO launch offer early november?

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    Do you guys know whether Carmina dies their shell themselves? Seeing those beautiful bourbon/armagnac shells boots are giving me angst that my still-in-production burgundy jodhpurs will turn too dark for my taste.

     If your bank is in the UK it might be easier to invoke section 75 of the consumer credit act (1974 I believe). I'll let you google it but it basically forces them to reimburse undelivered goods for payments between 100 & 2000 £ (again not 100% of the figures but i'm positive a toj jacjet is...

    I have a pair of cream linen walts with a bad case of coffee spill. It says no washing machine, dry clean only. What would happen if I was to clean them at 30° with low tumble dry (my machine goes as low as 400 rpm) ? Also how do you guys clean your tweed wool rivets?

    I've tried contacting Paypal's client services over the phone (from France) and was told that not only had I exceeded the time limit to do anything (she was relatively awed by how much), but also their insurance actually don't cover MTM stuff for no reason. That made me laugh. My bank said there...

    Why thanks, I beleive the close up of the balmoral seen in your second pic is the snuff rapello I was talking about, much darker indeed!

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Hi guys, I'm on the fence about these MTO snuff rapello boots: Thing is, the color differs a lot from other shoes also dubbed "snuff rapello": Is it because of the lighting or are we really talking about different colors here?

    Anyone who gave Charly their body measurements could give their BM and processed measurements please? I also haven't given mine and I'm trying to guesstimate what kind of pattern he was using to figure it out.
