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

[FinerThingsInLife]

I recently purchased a pair of Chelsea in Nightshade. I need to prep them before wearing. Looking to use Saphir cream and polish. I see Saphir makes a “plum” (or “prune”) cream. Should I use that, or burgundy? I can’t find the Saphir wax in plum—do they make the wax in that color?

This sounds amazing. I had never considered a Chelsea in this colour. Would you mind sharing a pic of them?

One more ready for action. Super excited about this pair.

Unique for sure way to think outside the box.

Can’t take the credit for the design. Cavour did this make-up. Still, it’s bit different, and I’m pleased.

London Grain + Shearling + Ridgeway + Veldt = Pretty Awesome actually. I agree that it’s a touch different .. All for 1100 usd something with SF discount.

When I ordered last year they shipped the next day and I think it only took maybe 2 days to get to NYC.

Where you in the UK and ordered?

Are they veldt for sure? I can’t tell from the pictures and it doesn’t say in the description.

here are a couple pictures. I used a black captoe (Grenson Masterpiece) and dark oak EG Chelsea as comparison. These are fresh out of the box, no cream or polish, whereas the dark oak are 3 years old and have some patina. The nightshade is on the 915 and the dark on on the 82.

Yes. I asked Kevin and he confirmed.

Yes they are. I got mine last week and looking at them and comparing to my others with veldt, they surely are veldt. Kevin confirmed the same. Surprised it wasn’t mentioned on the box and the website since it would have made them sell faster.

Nope, comfort of my apartment in Queens They sent an email indicating their seasonal sale selection on the website and I ordered from there.

Nice. iWas actually thinking of their outlet when I asked you that question.

Here are some helpful descriptions. Summarized: weather friendly construction.

From Edward Green site:

Veldtschoen
The definitive construction for country footwear, which sees the upper pulled over the welt for a more weather resilient finish.
