Navy Dundee update:

@wklq76a
@randomkoreandude
@devastitis
@ScarsdaleVibe
@KPDarb
@ryantaylor05
@naspratt

Just received a reply from Lauren. Here are our options:

Shell colors: Navy / Burgundy / Black / Brown / Whisky(!) -- no green available
Welt: Storm / 360 (what exactly is the difference?)
Sole: Leather / Dainite / Ridgeway / Vibram / City (does anyone have a pic of the C&J Vibram sole?)

No word on edging, price, and whether the hardware can offer contrast (golden brass on navy shell, for instance). Lauren will not find out about pricing till Tuesday.

Shipping will be 10 GBP for UK, 30 GBP for EU / USA (not sure if this includes Canada), 50 GBP for RotW. Shoe trees are 60 GBP, 50 GBP without VAT. So that's all standard.

While we wait to hear about the price, can we hammer out the details on the final makeup? I will also post on /r/goodyearwelt later tonight to see if there's any interest. Thanks for your patience!

In if burgundy or navy with a darker edge. Not a fan of of shiny hardware, and would probably bow out if that's what the majority wants. Wouldn't be the worst thing, since I have too many boots!

I'd prefer Navy, given how nice the darker brown worked. Basically my preference is for the prior Dundee makeup with brass hardware and navy shell. I'd probably jump in on a whiskey run though.

Okay, good to know. What are your feelings about whisky?

Cool, I've made a note. Thanks!

No. Ridgeway is a better sole IMO. Much better in snow. I agree with those who have commented that the Victoria soles can get filled up with snow and become slippery. Not good. I have a pair of Carminas with Victoria sole and I will wear them in the rain and maybe light snow, but no heavy snow. I have a pair of EG with Ridgeway and those are much better in the snow.

Okay, noted. I would personally prefer whisky but navy is a close second.
They are similar. I've seen the Ridgeway being used by St. Crispin's and EG.
I'm in for navy. If you guys decide to go with whiskey, put me on the wait list, as I'm not completely sold on whiskey shell. I'm also good with any of the hardware choices, whatever majority votes on. But it would have to be 4+4, and a rubber sole.

Sorry to hear that. Lauren did mention that not all the Warlows were in yet when she emailed me this morning. Yours may be coming in over the weekend. Estimated delivery date seems to show 1 day so you'll receive yours soon! I'll post some pics as soon as I'm able to but I'm sure someone else will do so before me.

@djbanor , I'd really like Dundee on 341 last and in brown cordovan. I'll be fine with any other specs regarding sole, eyelets etc.
