Yes, I've asked them as well, so no choice but to settle for the Ramsey Oak, 99last. Luckily it fits, but no more covy's cover. :(

Shoes are made in Vietnam and are relatively ok. Leather is calf but quality could be better (creases abit). Still, this is an issue most shoes around this price range bear since you get what you pay for. He's offering recrafts now, could be more favorable if redoing his own range compared to other brands lol.

If can wait for his sample sales even better.

For that range, you get what you pay for. Sample sales like likehotbutter mentioned is worth getting. I do feel the MTO price has gone ridiculously high over the years for the quality you are getting though.

I would go for a pair of RTW Carminas at the cost of the MTO (with change to spare), even though you can't specify what you want for the Carminas but the overall quality feels much better.

That's my personal view of course.... others might differ..

Hi can I know what's the procedure to use the shoe shine and all? Thank you
Click to expand...

Hello, I am definitely no expert in shoe shine, I was just applying what I learnt in army to this shoes.

Just get a cloth and apply the shoe wax (I'm using neutral color this time), and with circular motion apply to the place you want it to shy. At times, apply few drops of water so that it will merge(?) with the wax to create the shine.

The shine won't appear so fast though, you have to go through the process a few times and patience is definitely needed!

It will be better if you wait for expert to teach you what to do though!

penny loafer

Hi guys,

i need a recommendation for a dark brown penny loafer, budget around $250, which brand is around this price? Though i'm not too keen on brands such as pedro, don't think their quality is that great.

great example of the style i'm looking for is some simple like AE's : Cavanaugh - Pinch Penny Slip-on Loafer Men's Dress Shoes by Allen Edmonds
But of cos AE is above my budget

Would be great is i can try on the shoe before buying.



Thanks!
