Hmm...You should ping her if you don't hear anything soon. I was notified Friday morning and had them by EOD Monday.
I heard from Lauren the next day. I guess she received my shoes from the factory a day later than some of you guys.

Anyway, I got my PTBs today and they are glorious. I am very happy with how this GMTO came out.

Thanks again for organizing this, Erik.

[COLOR=8B4513]brown shell MArlow Ptb[/COLOR]



I WAS JUST CONTACTED BY ANOTHER PERSON WANTING TO JOIN THIS GMTO. SO, IF EVERYONE WHO IS STILL ON THE LIST IS STILL IN THEN WE JUST NEED ONE (1) MORE. IT'S A GREAT DEAL. JUMP IN.

This is a C&J MTO for a makeup virtually identical to the RL Marlow PTB. The specs are:

Specs:
  • Grasmere (325 last)
  • Dark brown (C&J color "dark cognac") shell cordovan
  • Double leather soles
  • Exposed eyelets
  • Storm welt
  • Antique welt/edge


Price: £620 (less VAT is £516.67). Shipping to US is £30.00.

Click on BROWN SHELL MARLOW PTB above to go to the signup spreadsheet. Feel free to contact me with any questions!









A bit confused...I thought the Dainite sole option was the one close to fruition, or has the number required for an order to go through decreased? (Spreadsheet shows 10 signed up for Dainite and only 6 signed up so far for the double leather sole option).

I just heard from C&J that the whiskey Lindricks from the GMTO last December that I organized are in, and they will ship out the Tuesday after Easter.
I hope the whiskey Galway 2's are not far behind. Organized and finalized also early Dec.

If I'm not mistaken, the Whiskey Lindrick was finalized/paid for in early November, so his timeline may be a bit off.

Either way, I'm also waiting for the Whiskey Galway 2 boots, so I'm hoping they come sooner than expected!

Sorry for any confusion. A new person PMed me yesterday indicating his interest in the GMTO and asking how to join. I see that as of this post has not yet put his name on the spreadsheet. He didn't specify his sole preference but assuming he signs up for the Dainite soles and assuming all other persons on the Dainite list are still in then we need only one more person to reach 12.

Anyone willing to do one of these in an F fitting? All the GMTOs have been E fitting, from what I can tell.

I'm interested in a F fitting GMTO too, as long as it's not boots. Double leather sole will be great.

I think you're going to have a hard time finding 12 people to sign up for an F fitting GMTO. If you don't mind spending a little bit extra, I'd just do a single MTO. You're going to save yourself a lot of time.

The requirement is still 12, there just a strong divide between the two camps. I'm in on the Dainite version. Only need 2 more.

Got it. The post above has double leather soles listed in the specs so I was confused as to which one was close to fruition. Hope it gets through quickly for you guys!

Ugh, now I have to send my other Navy Dundee back to get fixed. Due to me, C&J is no longer affixing cordovan pull tabs with leather, but only fabric! Great customer service, just a PITA!

I'm also mocking up a EG Clifton rip-off based on C&J designs in Whiskey Cordovan. It'll be 50% the price quoted by Leffot for the EG version (if they even have Whiskey in stock). I still lean for the real thing though.
