[thundermarch]

@thundermarch, what happened to the lazyman?

Luckily the list you have proposed does not call out to me that much.
Okay, maybe the seamless wholecut.......

Lazyman gmto ended couple of months ago. It's already under way.

 

[thundermarch]

HAHA!

Pair of post-war Constabulary Chelseas from our National Musuem. Couldnt help but recall our lil elastic banter when I saw it

Spoiler

By Enzo?

Ding me when this rolls. Could consider

Yes. Enzo.
There are already 2 of us, BallGag and I, perpetually ready. We've been searching and searching for a third.
When are you good to go?

 

[thundermarch]

Chelsea boots in black (might not interest you).
Seamless wholecut in Vitello Bolet.
Sideswept single monk in calf / deerskin.
Potential elephant leather makeup (Split toe apron derby short boot).

I might be keen on the Chelsea boots.....

One question about Carmina SG store. The price now is same as Carmina Online SG site, but without the free shoe tree, correct?

Yes. Free shoe tree must self collect from store. I asked them they said they franchise so different management.

Combination millerighe / single leather sole. Has a double tapering to single sole appearance. And the waist (only) is blake.

If im not mistaken u will have to pay gst for the online purchase

 

[jonleelk]

Yes. Free shoe tree must self collect from store. I asked them they said they franchise so different management.

What I meant if order online is S$663 inclusive of gst and shoe tree and self collect from SG store.

If walk in to SG store to buy, same shoe also S$663, only without free shoe tree? Or more expensive than S$663?

Sounds good. The last looks interesting for boots. What leather will it be in? And is there a reason for the waist being Blake? Think I'm inclined to the millerighe sole.

Actually might be different by a bit. I went in to ask abt the suede loafe and it is 645. Online is slightly more probably due to exchange. Not sure abt shoe tree. As alot of websit do not have loafer, walk in to buy seems allright.

Vitello black.
The blake waist just allows the waist profile to be as sleek as it can get.

Cool... Let me know when it goes underway.

From the last visit. Price is exactly same, but now carmina online did go up by abit example wholecut oxfords were 649sgd, not sure if local store has change their pricing too.

But you get the shoe tree which is worth it imo.

The price you see online is all you pay already including tax as what they stated.

Sorry, just curious which design the side swept single monk would be similar to in this link? http://dieworkwear.com/post/13831024107/the-cutaway-single-monk

Or would it be this? http://www.theshoesnobblog.com/2015/06/burgundy-monks-by-bonafe.html

Might be interested too but need to know how much to budget for?

Edited: It's ok, saw your x-post in SF. Would it be a crime to request for no toe broguing?

[thundermarch]

Does anyone have experience with cobblers who add sole protectors to women's shoes? Are there specific cobblers who are able to do it, or is it simply a matter of cutting the sole protectors to size so all cobblers should be able to do so?
