Carminas is on sale on elm and khan website. Spend 500 CAD and get 150 cad off. In short a pair of carminas is about 350 CAD, est sgd$450 after delivery and GSt.

Fastest finger, they are closing down. I didn't get any as the design I liked doesn't have my size.

Hmm
the discount doesn't compute. When i checkout there is no CAD 150 deduction

Yup. Perfect. Simpson last and both size 9 available.
I got the brown calf quarter brogue and the brown suede captoe oxford

I guessed as much. The brown pair of brogues is a clear winner among the limited designs available.

No problem bro. Very happy and yet envious for you. My brown calf quarter brogue in size uk8 went oos suddenly when I was at the very last page of the check out page. Needless to say, my heart sank to the bottom. Not sure whether I saved money, or lost money.

It's pretty good. I love the sleekness of the simpson.
And I've been on the lookout for a good pair of brown suedes. It was a no brainer

I have relatively wide feet so it's definitely going to be a problem buying them. Apparently the Berwick pair that I got is the narrowest of lasts, hopefully my small toe doesn't dies.

Hopefully the fact that they run a little large compensates for that fact.

Both Simpson and Uetam last are narrow and fits snugly. Not recommended for those with high instep especially if you are choosing the Monk strap models.

For those who have tried other last, please share your opinion. :)

The rain last is a fairly generous last. It is generally regarded as fitting true to size. But for those with narrow feet i would say don't go for it. I feel it has a fairly high instep.

Anybody interested in shoe trees? I found Jos a bank offering their trees today at 50%+extra 25% off. Each pair is around $10 excluding shipping.
