Please be careful - don't know if this report is true:

Iconic Edwards of Manchester shoe shop closes after trading for almost 200 years

If true, that's very sad. I got my first G&Gs - Vintage Chestnut Gables - there and met Tony there for the first time ...

Khakis of carmel has lots of GG and EG 20% off.

Strange! There really is no mention of Edward's going down on the site. My bad.

I had this confirmed by one of their manufacturers today; Edwards of Manchester is indeed closed for business, maybe the online section is still taking orders for left over stock though.

Thank you, I will. Today was a work day, visited the Carmina factory and had a nice chat with Tony. Great guy.

Any ideas of what size I should order if I wear US6 for all Aldens? I assume most G&G lasts fit the same?

They do. Please email us and we'll help you: [email protected]

The very general recommendation is to size down half a size.

Oh and to anyone who was looking into going to Philly to Tobox shoes for the GG event, I spoke with the owner Tung, and he said that it has been canceled.

He is trying to reschedule it for the fall.

I think I may have fallen in love with a black shoe for the first time ever in my life

Cliffe

What do you all think? Oh and this one too

I think this just confirms the point that G&G are as much art as footwear.
Simply breathtaking.
