Imperator, vintage leather dark brown or burgundy, undetermined last though think chisel 2 will work for majority

Yes it would! In brown please.

 

[Rylsa]

@clee1982 perhaps we can do an update of participants? We just need 10, should be doable hopefully.

 

[clee1982]

yup let me get the notes, though I hasn't talk to AM for a while now, so will probably re hash the detail out. The 10 for free tree was not with the vintage leather originally, let me get go back to do a head count first

last: open
leather: vintage baby box (150 euro upcharge), either

1. dark brown


OR

2. burgundy/oxblood from the same tannery late 80 early 90s vintage baby box, he has very limited number of this, as in if enough people are interested he has to check if he has enough leather to make this (1 to 2 pair yes, beyond that he has to check)



headcount (given the variation, I'll just put everyone including maybe here)
@bernoulli -> newly added, needs to be chisel not round last
@Rylsa
@GeoffreyB
@shoes83
@cypi2 -> prefer oxblood, prefer not chisel 2 or mayfair
@Jmr928
@jischwar
@Betta (though I think you want on round last only right? think everyone else is kind open with some chisel only)
@evangel21 -> maybe
@deez shoes (don't think you were interested, but just confirming)
@WhyUEarly (think you're interested in Conicen instead, but just confirming)
@beargonefishing, sorry no quad material this time, but just in case...
@BColl_Has_Too_Many_Shoes , sorry, this is no Aurum, but hi it's Argentum handwelt...
@wklq76a, don't think you were on the AM thread too often, but I remember you were looking at the chinese handwelt option, well this is another one for you with different aesthetics (dressy tank)
@acapaca, wasn't really tracking, I couldn't remember if you were interested in this or the optio boot
@shirtingfantasy , don't think you're interested in this but hi you know guys in HK, so spread the words...?
@woofmang , don't think you're interested but just checking...
@Encore , think you need customized last (instep?), but hi just checking (and we all know AM can be somewhat flexible on that kind of stuff...)
@bsarosi, don't think you indicated interested but in case you need another AM...?
@JustPullHarder, sorry at least I'm just doing random blast out in case you're interested...
@DL120, think you're more on ACME lately, but maybe I can interest you with another AM (though you have customized last as well)?
@nishant , very sure you're more of a boot guy than shoe guy, but just see if you might be interested
@Zaos1, think you were interested in AM though remember you need lower instep option, not quite sure, so just checking
@AWu , sorry at this point I'm just tagging names I kind remember seeing on the AM thread lately...


most likely can't waive single MTO charge but free last tree instead (but that was pre-vintage leather, so need to check, but if we're far off on headcount then I want to be sure we're somewhat close before I propose something to him)

edit: feel free to tag more people...

@clee1982 you a mind reader?? I don't think I indicated an interest BUT I had been and still am thinking about it. Not sure if I need another pair of formal shoes, let alone an adelaide.

I'm on the fence for this one. For now.

Soft square would work too But will follow thread!

 

[bernoulli]

I am in for a chiseled last in oxblood. Would be ok with dark brown but not a round last.

 

[clee1982]

@bernoulli
noted, added you to the lsit


and just to be clear when I say chisel I'm speaking generically (like Chisel 2 and Soft Square are both chisel) and when I say round I also mean round generically (so haskwsbill/Mayfair/Round)

@clee1982, thank you much for this summary!

- Last: I am pretty open regarding the last (although I would prefer something else than chisel 2 or mayfair - I have quite a few pairs on these two lasts already).
- Color: I am in for the burgundy/oxblood.

 

[clee1982]

by the way what's your sizing reference on chisel 2 and mayfair, same size?

 

[cypi2]

by the way what's your sizing reference on chisel 2 and mayfair, same size?

Same size but different widths:

UK 11 F for the chisel 2
UK 11 E for the mayfair

 

[bernoulli]

I got that. Hawsbill is an interesting last but I already have enough shoes with rounder toes.

Thanks for all your hard work on this.
