WOW, darn it, can't believe this is actually happening! This messes up with my plans...

Can we keep the MH71 option open?

I would prefer GG06 since I have a thorpe coming on MH71, but I'm flexible. Is the last a deal breaker for you?

I would say same size as barrie and EG82. This would be an F width, but I have Galways in an 8.5E and I had to size up to a 9E for the GG06. For this one I'm going with an 8.5F.

Wait, will there be speed hooks? Or is it blind eyelets all the way?
