Sadly missed out on the Loden order… any word on some pictures to dry my eyes?

[Giles]

No, but they should be complete very soon….G

Waiting patiently for the winter collection!

Well, I really did not expect that they would break so fast, especially after I wore them not really that often. 
Anyone who maybe has the same problem? Should contact George?

[elclintor]

yes, definitely send him an email..

What's the deal on these?

@oakstbootmakers:

Alright men,
Here is a photo to show how the leather compares in color to our current navy and brown chromexcel.

I so excited to make these for you guys.  This Loden Green Chamois isn't a standard leather for Oak Street or for Horween - it's a special order that we've done just for the forum members.  I know you guys want something special and different from the usual offerings and the chamois is a perfect way to set these shoes apart.  Chamois is a neubuck, and for this run i've decided to oil it to make it a little darker and to strengthen it.  This is a leather that will look uneblievable with wear.  It'll scuff up and get a great rough track to it over time while still molding to your foot and being super soft.

This is my favorite Oak Street shoe already, and I think we're only going to make 19 pairs for you guys - because I'm gonna make a pair for myself 

Also - I'll personally lightly burnish each pair and box them up for you.  Can't wait to make these for you all, and start seeing the worn photos here in this thread

I sent him a mail and he already answered me. George said that this should be only a very minor repair and that I could take the shoes to a local cobbler or sent them to him. I’m going to try a local cobbler because it would cost way more time to send the shoes from Germany to the USA. I’m also pretty sure that the German customs would be a pain in the ass again. (I paid over 60€ in custom dues for the shoes…)
