Sorry!!! Big day at work yesterday 😂
Newmarket in mink suede and shanklin in snuff. I must say I really prefer the dark brown R1 soles with the snuff suede - wasn’t planning on buying these but as soon as I saw them on Mr Porter I couldn’t say no.
Does that Newmarket come with the R1 sole? If so, kinda kicking myself for not realizing that Mr Porter had it.

Is the 888 last more chiselled than the 890, whereas the latter is more of a soft chisel or do I have this backwards? Looking at a pair of Newbury wholecuts (I'm a size 12D if that helps).

Does anyone have any Edward Greens in chestnut antique? Wondering how versatile you find them...

I have a pair of chestnut Chelseas. I wear them in warmer weather with lighter colored linen outfits and the like. They’re a six month shoe, from April through the end of September.
On the flip side, the darker shoes fall by the wayside during those months. Considering that none of my shoes are year rounders, the chestnut Chelseas are as versatile as any other.

Very versatile. The colour has changed since 2015; it was once an orange tan but now is a lighter and yellower tan. I like both but would say that the newer colour is more summer wear orientated much like the similar "Edwardian".
