Where are they from Manton please? and how much are they retailing for?
And finally, have you pulled the trigger on buying a pair? (if or when you do, photos please!! thanks).
Hot ginger and dynamite, There's nothing but that at night,
Back in Nagasaki Where the fellers chew tobaccy and the
women wicky-wacky Woo.
They are Edward Green, the Shannon model. And those are indeed mine; ordered in January, just arrived.
I don't know what the UK price is. Over here they were in the low four figures. This boot is, I am told, never stocked; it's a special order only, and that raises the cost a bit.
No speed lacers?

Nope. My other pair of dress boots came without them, and I really don't find them difficult to lace.Originally Posted by Will
That is the most stunning pair of dress boots I've seen. My compliments to your taste level. Will you wear them with a tropical weight suit? Or keep them with a lofty fabric?

Lovely boots! What last are they on?
82 last.
Probably not, though I am tempted to get a pair in Edwardian, a light brown/dark tan with some orange underdones. Those would look nice with summer suits.
but have you yet formed an opinion re the quality compared to other shoes in terms of comfort, materials etc.?
very 20s looking.
