My Loakes are taking a hell bloody long time to get here
So I'll post pictures later on

 

[thundermarch]

Sorry about not being able to attach pics directly. I think it is some forum thing that prevents those with <100 posts from attaching pics directly.
I think they are worried junior members will do something stupid like post pictures of naked women or me with my schlong out creaming my shoes

Try using photobucket, it's a lot better, and they provide the options for you to embed the pics on Internet forums.

Btw, what are your opinions on the navy shell? Does it seem a little too blue under the sun? Thinking of getting the punched captoe oxford in calf leather. I was hoping it would look black enough for typical office setting.

Go for cordovan if u are looking for navy... IMHO, I don't think calf can carry the colour well.

The Navy Shell Cordovan looks good! Was wondering how will you maintain it as the colour is hard to come by.

For meermin, it could only be one of these options:
- Meermin website (the most probable source if brand new)
- Meermin retail presence which I believe is only within Spain and Isetan in Tokyo (not sure still there....)
- Pre-owned

Bro
To be quite frank I did not buy the navy shells for use in a very formal setting.
The blue , though deep, is fairly striking and flashy . But extremely beautiful . Even not under the sun, you can see the blue sheen . Its quite a sight .
All in a day is right, I think navy works better with shell
Its definitely going to be used in a more party / fancy / fun setting

Bro I bought my meermins directly from their site
I also bought the carminas directly from their website

The carminas cost
288 euros for the monks
488 euros for the shells
- plus 60 euros shipping
- plus 100 bux in gst

actually i havent figured out the fne details yet
but i have bought saphir cordovan cremes and navy wax
i will be getting a deer bone soon - i have to think about how to get it
apparently boning your shells with deer bone is a good way to maintain the natural oils

Hi bro,

Congratulations on your new Carminas.

A quick question since I was also contemplating a pair of shell cordovan and took a look at their website on whole cut in Rain last (never own any Rain lasted model so far). I realized that the picture on the website shows 4 eyelets but the pair you received shows 5 eyelets. Is the model you bought 910-006 (Navy)?

haha
thats true
indeed the model numbers tally
i didnt even notice the discrepancy in the number of eyelets
but i dont matter to me
i was too taken in by how good it looked

This is just an update on yesterday's issue regarding the defect on the Meermin DM

Meermin replied me today and offered to take off all shipping costs and costs of the shoe care products (4 saphir creams and 3 saphir waxes) off my current outstanding order

That comes to about 105 euros discount.

I think thats pretty solid actually.

I might be getting a pair of edetal burnished captoe antique brown monks tonight.
