Natty cxl after nst after about a dozen wears, i think im safe on the wrinkling on this pair

Such a great looking boot, hoping I can add a NATCXLNST boot to my collection eventually. If someone does a make up with commando I would be in heaven, if not I will be grabbing these from Unionmade next time they pop up.


Natural CXL is my wifes fav leather of all my shoes, she says they are the perfect medium brown for casual shoes.

For those interested in the Anatomica Ravello boots, here is a picture the shop sent to me when I inquired about my size. They said the boots run 880 Euro plus 60 more for shipping to the US. Even if they had my size I'm not sure I could swallow paying almost $1200 for a pair of Aldens. They sure are beautiful though, if a little dark for Ravello.

Is there 20%+/- off for VAT?

Thanks buddy. Trying really hard not to pull the trigger on Anatomica Ravello plain toe.

@Tricky

Good luck with E sizing.

I can only confirm that they have 8.5D in stock. Although it was mentioned previously that they also have sizes 12, 10.5, and 9 as well (assuming D width). It's worth a call or email if you're interested though.

@Steel28 -- Do it and spare me the agony of thinking about these…

Spoke to Anatomica manager, very nice gentlemen. I had size 8.5D on hold but decided to pass:

1 - I never tried Modified last

2 - I might get hit with customs/taxes and the price will jump by at least $150 +

3 - I'm waiting for cigar and ravello ct boots from my best friend Kathy and the cost of Anatomica pt with customs fees = both pairs

I think I'm still making mistake not purchasing these from Anatomica..

I'm not sure. I wondered that myself, but I didn't ask since my size wasn't in stock. They were aware that I was asking for the price as a US buyer and they still quoted me the 880 EUR price.

Glad to be non-enabler at least once my friend. It defiantly a unique makeup though, 100%.
