    Best outsole for city walking

    Dainite=Evil as previous poster notes they are hard, jarring and brutal on your feel, and they never break in. IMHO they are for folks who don’t walk more than a few blocks from the subway to the office. The few pairs I’ve acquired with dainite have gone straight to the conbler for replacement...

    I would be up for a pair in another color if you’re interested , gotta say they turned out even better than I thought. A really perfect model for shell.

    Waterproofing prevents polish and other treatments from penetrating properly. Since one doesn’t polish suede, no harm in using a sealant on it.

    Apropos of the Galways in brown Shell, do GMTOs all have to be on the same width?

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    I’m sure there is plenty of conflicting advice available, but my 2¢: 1. Never put any kind of waterproofing sealant on leather shoes, but it’s okish to use on suede. 2. Leather doesn’t mind water, particularly good leather. Cheap leather will discolor/run so go ahead and put sealant on that...

    I can wear Lobb by either going down a size or wearing an insole, but the 8000 last is impossible for me.

    Interesting, I'm a D in G&G as well- 10.5. If their lasts work for you I can ask Fugashin if they have a similar fitting last. But why miss out on a trip to Vietnam- great country, and the price is the same for a custom last as it is for an MTO so might as well.

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    Regarding sizing- I’d say their standard lasts fit TTS (I have my own last with them and if you want to go to Vietnam they will make you a personal last at no extra charge). I would say the fit is very close to one of the modern Lobb (7000) or C&J lasts (very close to the 360) but fairly wide...

    @stephenaf2003 and @TtownMD just spoke to Fugashin and they can do croc nubuck. Cost for MTO will be approximately $600 plus shipping. Game on!

    Fugashin Jodphurs- I think these would look nice in croc- maybe on their chiseled last. (This isn’t the chiseled last- I just shined the toes to make them look a little sharper.)

    Rock Your Socks- show your sock, shoe & pant combos

    Do you know how much C&J can downsize a shoe during a resole? Or if they can take an E to a D fitting? I made the same mistake with the 348 on my Lingfields- and being Chelseas there's no place for a tongue pad.
