Hello everybody,

I just looked into the former GMTO offerings. Only a few GMTOs reached the minimum of 6 participants. In 2021 and 2022 many more GMTOs reached the minimum number of participants.

Hence I guess it will be unlikely for another 4 shoe aficiandos to sign-up for the "Stroud" GMTO. All former GMTO offerings were rather casual boots.

Best regards

Pascal

Wow. Those are incredible. Are they a current model?

As far as I'm aware, C&J makes nothing for RL anymore. RL has since discovered you can have shoes built in China which when new look the same, and also sell them for the same price.

"RL" is Ralph Lauren or so, an American Fashion brand?

Very sad indeed. Actually it applies to the whole production, not only their shoes. The most garments are produced in lowcost work countries and the quality is no longer that of the glorious days. The prices are always (outrageously) high. Maximising profit at best (worst).

Yes, it is. They had collaborations in the past with Crockett & Jones and Edward Green, among others.

Thanks, I never wore any apparell of Ralph Lauren.

Also others, like Brooks Brothers in the USA, collaborate with C&J. There are many unworn and new shoes from Brooks Brothers made by C&J available on Ebay.
