Indeed, love that Uppingham style captoe.

Have been thinking of a Oakham MTO, and can't decide between the Uppingham style captoe or a simple medallion. I'll post some concept pics later...

Just a reminder for the MTO that I will be placing in 2 weeks that I hope I can get 6 people to join...


I'm going to do an MTO for a pair of G&G through skoaktiebolaget.

Since Im not in a great hurry I thought I would check here first so see if someone else might be
interested in joining me.
However, since I dont want to wait forever either I will put a final date for the whole thing,
which will be friday november 22nd.

if we dont get 6 people by that time and you dont want to proceed with purchasing the shoes with the added MTO cost,
that is fine I will go ahead and order them anyway :)
So if you are interested in joining in, please contact me.

the specs will be these, but if someone has a better idea, im still open for suggestions.

Gaziano & Girling Arran
Not sure if its Oak hatch grain or if its brown hatch grain, cause I think its a tad lighter than oak
anyway, its the shoes below and I saw that Nick from from bespoke england had used it.
Last: MH71
Width: E
Sole: Wensum (or Dainite if a majority prefer this)
Details: Black stitching/lining/lacing with only 2 eyelets instead of the normal 3.
price: Gabriel/Patrik help please.
Price for this mode as a Group MTO is 7900 SEK (6320 ex VAT)
Price for this model as a MTO is 9300 SEK (7440 ex VAT)

So the shoe/last will look like this.




But the coloring will/should be very similar to this

http://www.styleforum.net/g/i/515395/a/337981/gaziano-girling-appreciation-shoo-Appreciation-theard/


Still not 100% sure that these all of these details are possible, but G&G are usually pretty flexible,
so I hope there wont be any problems.
I also dont know the price for these, but Gabriel or Patrik might help me here :)

I imagine it will look something like this
http://www.styleforum.net/t/338047/...official-affiliate-thread/660_10#post_6633563
but with black details

To get an idea for what the difference will be between black and brown stitching/lacing
2 very similar dark oak EG dovers are shown below.

What he's saying is that $9xx is not the normal price - they lowered the price from the start of the offering as an introductory thing, but it's about to run out

It's a good reduction against what other NA retailers are charging
