These are three very different, but excellent models.

AOM is currently offering a switch to 1 of 3 styles for the people that had a delayed Ravello order. I believe they will eventually be listed on the Spring Listing for Shell but do not believe they are available for public sale as of yet. I think the Ravello switch will get first priority but I could be wrong?

Cigar WT Boot on Commando
Cigar Barrie Captoe (no details)
Cigar Barrie PTB (no details) - Like the 990

I decided to switch to the Cigar WT boot, I really appreciate the 15% offer they gave for the inconvenience. Good luck to everyone that waits out the Ravello. Im sure it will be a beautiful boot.

Is there anything special one needs to know about getting on AOM's list for these boots?? I have worked with Alden DC and SF, but not AOM, and from what I understand they are not run by Alden, like the former -- is that correct?? I gather that these are not technically available for those not already on the Ravello lists...

I would get on their email list. They'll contact you and for exotics request you email them interest first before THEY call you. I've had good experiences with them in the past doing this.

Sent email to Adam of Aoc... he said no waiting list or email list for rare shell, maybe only for long relationship customer...

I didn't get an email from AoM despite paying in full for Ravello WTs a while back... That's alarming.

Have you received an email from them in the past? They might have a typo in your email address. That happened to me.

 

[Handcuffed]

They responded to an inquiry once but I think I handled the order via phone.

I would love to convert my order to a cigar wingtio boot so we will see what happens...

Actually it is not the JCrew edition.
