I bought the last one :)

It seems the Odd Stock are ''display'' sets but for that price how can anyone resist

Not all the time.
A good number of the odd stock stuff, are just designs that may have been around for quite awhile but hasn't sold briskly and thus SkoaB puts them on the odd stock section to clear space for new models.
These shoes may have just been sitting in their boxes, untouched.

Skoak's odd stocks are usually normal stocks in their last 1 or pairs which they are not going to restock.

Plus this time around, they are clearing to make way for the move.

Can't resist the temptation and pulled the trigger for an Enzo Raven Oxford last night.. hope it turns out well

Good hoot, share when it arrives! Now everytime got an attractive looking pair from Enzo in odd stock, a small part of me prays they don't have my size..

"from now till end of the year. Any Enzo purchased through a GMTO or in house stock will entitle customers to $50 discount off your second pair of an in house stock model."

From Lusso

Pretty smart move! People at the enzo level hardly stop at 1 pair. :s13:

I have small feet so sizing availability is hopefully smaller!

Ever since I have embraced leather shoes/soles, been getting a tad more attention when walking around in the office knock knock knock

Lol... Tell me about it.. I don't know how to resist that Bolet Calf ST with the 50 bucks in hand. And it's till end of the year only.

Resist? No need la. Just whack.
When you're drowning, it's much better to go with the current than fight it.
Just look at this Bolet calf, it's fantastic.

Bumping the GMTO. Still looking for 1 more participant to make this GMTO a reality!

2. All in a Day
3. anodize
4. ?????

Btw, I'm having second thoughts about the last. Any comments guys?

Model: Button shoe (not boots)

Design: Plain captoe balmoral style with plain stitching.

Sides will be like pic A below and not the straight across kind and there will not be broguing.

Color: Black calf for bottom, Loden suede for top. There will be a centre line where the lace will be as with all button boots but we will use the same suede material so there will not be a contrast there like what you see in pic B. Pic C is the pairing of the 2 materials to give a better idea of what it would look like.

Sole: Preference for single sole with topy. If anyone has any thoughts, let me know.

Last: Likely the 946. But after trying out the sizes of the respective lasts, I'm having second thoughts on the 946. I think the 804 may be more suitable for this makeup. (Plus the 946 might not be as suitable for me. :s13:

Pic A:

Pic B:
MG_2435-1024x822.jpg


Pic C:

Pic B pretty much sums up the design of the shoe sans the contrasting centre line on the suede part and the seam that runs on the side of the shoe.

Anyone out that that is keen, let me know! :D

I'm planning to run it through Lusso if we get enough people on board.

I'm curious, how are you going to get the notched balmoral like in Pic A? The pic is a carmina pic if I recall correctly, and I haven't seen any pics of Enzo button boots like in pic A.

I'd be interested if you can get it to look like pic A! loden shaft is ok, but would prefer some kind of dark brown (maybe Betis Ebano or vitello meleze) rather than black leather uppers, in 804 last.

Open to diff last but need to try on. I have wide feet!

I have wide feet and 804 fits better for me than 946. 946 tapers too sharply and pinches my toes. 804 in the same size is longer and wider.

With 3 out of 4 people in, I'd have to bump this!

I'm thinking of an Enzo Bonafe group made to order (gmto) from skoakB rather than lusso, due to leather availability. Any interest? So far there's 2 ppl, we can do a GMTO with 4.

Enzo Bonafe long wing (probably in a round last like 363mod as shown in the picture)
- in tan tarnsjo leather (top left)
- norvegese chain welt (top middle)
- rope laces with leather ends (top right)

Also, some kind of rubber sole. Leaning towards millerighe but ok with other types of leather sole. Any interest?

Price is 4960 SEK (which is about S$770 using xe.com rates now), upcharge due to norvegese welt.
