Are those black cap toes on the store site? Or were those part of an MTO

Cool, I just checked it out.

Steve - any idea when they will be arriving? Is it the typical 3 month wait?

To share my personal experience, I'm a 8.5E US and 7.5 wide UK in both the Rain and Forest lasts.  The regular width doesn't work for me on either last.  The Carmina wide width fits very similarly to a typical E in the more traditionally fitting Alden (Aberdeen, Plaza, and Grant) or Allen Edmonds lasts (1 and 7).


Precisely. And precisely my experience. Rain regular fitting is too narrow for those needing the equivalent of an American "E" width. Any other suggestion is just simply misleading, bad information.

These will probably take a little longer due to Carmina's summer factory closure :(
September maybe?
Both Tomir sole & Leather sole options are available!

Went a bit crazy with some suede MTOs...
As always, Steve's customer service was top notch, he is a pleasure to do business with.

Navy captoe, orange Marcoliani and brown Epaulet canvas trousers. Really great shoes.
Looking good Burton! I love how my navy shoes look black indoors or to an untrained eyes haha
Wear them in good health sir!

From start to finish in this MTO Stevey has been excellent. Quality of service is as equally as important as quality of product to me and Stevey and gentlemensfootwear.com delivers, I'll be back!







Cleav! These words really give me strength if you will haha ;)
Thank you again for all the great shout outs in different threads as well!

Ive been shopping with Steve for a while and every MTO I do with him gets better and better.

I knew I would regret not getting that PTB and I am regretting it. I am glad to be in on that loden chukka though.

I know in the Carmina thread there was talk of an adelaide cap toe in the rain last, anyone considering Carminas spice suede?
