It's called style Rafa
It's not like they're silver Diors or anything is it?
Bronze Diors are where it's at. That's what all the superstars wear.

Did someone say group buy?

i personally like the first pair, and seriously dislike the second. However, Im pretty traditional. i would be interesting to see a pair however, regardless.
edit** its the sole on the second one that I dont like. Maybe something a bit more streamlined and not so rugged. No reason, other than fashion, that that sole is on that boot.

Rocket, those boots are amazing.
-
So thats around £600 and £900 respectively….....time to start saving I guess
To be fair, spec and leather really alter the price, as does whether he makes a bespoke last for your foot etc...
I'm expecting what I want to buy to cost around £500 - £550, but don't nail me on that until I get appropriate price information.

yeah, I know, just to see a range, they did a model for Mushmans http://shop.mushmans.com/?pid=54873094, that is really close to the greys, beside the diff colored sole, so that should be around that, price wise

Still awaiting answers, and I have worryingly read that Goto-San likes people to go to his workshop, or he can visit you to get a personal measurement. Not sure how he would feel about flying to Mansfield, and it might bump the price slightly :-\

I don't know why anyone would object to going to Mansfield…
If you're getting a pair of bespoke shoes made then you ideally want whoever's responsible for the last to measure your feet. This is because they can assess you better, and also work around any quirks that you might have. Plus they'll have their own idiosyncrasies in how they do things.
Alternatively, see if you can get someone to measure up your feet over here, and post the drawings. If you want to do it in a real high-tech fashion then visit James Taylor and Son, who have a 3D scanner.
The other option would be to find a shoemaker in the UK who can make you a pair of lasts, and then ship them over to Goto-San. The trouble with that is that the shape would then then by influenced by them, rather than being the White Kloud house style.

James Taylor and Son (of London) ruined an old pair of SD's I had with the worst resole job I have ever seen.
