Making Boots

[footandmaff]

Wow, those oxfords and two tone boots. Incredible.

[tmg]

Hemi, any more news as to when you'll start selling these?

[Hemi]

I've been working like a dog getting everything ready to go live… should be up and running in a couple of weeks.

I also had some suggestions from Giles that I'm trying to incorporate and I'm looking at some very promising sole options that will really lift the boots.

The website is being built right now... by me... mostly because I have no money and Shopify makes it easy for dummies!

Here's a few more boots we've made recently.

Great stuff Hemi, keep going!

That black on black is amazing

[Cutlasshound]

Very nice dude. Look forward to seeing the website go live

just found this thread….those roughout oxfords from a few pages back are bonkers.

I'll definitely be watching this thread to see a web address

great work!

I fell in love with that oxford. Keep us updated, Hemi! Beautiful work.

[Hemi]

Check out the latest sample boot.

We've made it without the celastic toe box and used a new cork/recycled rubber sole, upgraded to better quality solid brass gold plated eyelets and adjusted the stitching slightly (as suggested by Giles)… It's the most solid boot we've made and my feet have taken a hammering trying to break them in.

The website is just about finished so all of our stuff will be available very soon.

[Giles]

Hemi, I'm biased I know, but I think the stitching looks better…....

[Hemi]

Thanks Giles! It's hard to tell but we've also used the heavier stitch on the outsider quaters stitch.

[Finn666]

way better without the celastic toe profil imo…sth. i can see myself wearing in the near future. super well done hemi!

[injunjack]

must disagree, celastic is the way to go. I hope both versions will be available….(like I need new boots...doh)

[Anesthetist]

Man, I like these a lot! Nice work!

[Hemi]

Thanks guys!

Yep, they will be available with & without the celastic.

[Seul]

Killer boots Hemi!..

Well, after two + years of work I've finally opened the Website… Not bad for a guy who can't work an iPhone!

I've still got a lot of work to do on the website and the boots but we're on our way!
