I prefer the shaft length of the EG. A bit more proportionate to me

^ He has accepted offers on many items, but I know you have to at least go higher than $501 GBP to get them.

We are curious to know what you gentlemen think about the EG Shannon and Carmina's balmoral boot. Big difference? No difference?
I'm not a big fan of bal boots. Both of these look nice, but I like the EG better. And I'm not a huge fan of Carmina's shell finishing.

Shannon is a slender and sleek overall. Carmina bal boot has more pronounced curves in the taper to the toe and more overall body compared to Shannon.

Both look very nice. But my vote has to go to the Shannons. Which last are the Carminas on? Forrest or Robert?

^ Difference is like that between a BMW 5 series and a Lamborghini. Both are beautiful and I'd be pretty d@mned happy with either. The first is great, the second will blow your doors off. Visually, the difference between the shoes won't be nearly as great to most people (as opposed to with the cars). If you know what to look for, however, there is definitely a difference.

Great description.

That's a lot of blue shell in the last week. And now I know who got the Ullwaters from Leffot in my size (I had been eyeing but never pulled the trigger). Glad you got them!! Enjoy!!
