      @Giles:

      No, what happens is, if they have to process customs or VAT they add on a £13.50 handling charge…..........

      I wonder if the handling charge varies… they charged me £8.00 and then £11.90 VAT

        Mainly I'd say we can all agree that everyone at customs, and as a whole, they're a bunch of fecking' tossers…

          Just get me to do this shit for you.  My handling charges are very "reasonable".

            I spoke to George@OSB last night, he’s too much of a gentleman to dis Epaulet (and what would it buy him anyway?). But I can tell by the tone of his voice, that he aint a happy bunny.

                anyone (Lando I'm looking in your direction) handled the new Epaulet shoes? they look much like OSB's offerings, are hand-sewn in Maine (does everyone in Maine work in the shoemaking business), Horween leather, look pretty nice for the money.

                @jacoavlu:

                thats good to know

                As for this topic, I want to state this once and only once. I no longer work at Epaulet. I own the Oak Street's and LOVE them! I also have a pair of Epaulet's that I was given before I left. As for the whole "similar" look between the two, let's just say that Epaulet and I had creative differences. I will be buying more Oak Streets in the future!!!

                    Thanks for the thoughts Lando. I hope you don't think I meant anything tossing your name out there. I didn't know you worked for them. I just knew you were in NYC and owned some EP stuff so figured if anyone had seen the in house shoes it might be you.

                      No not at all. Just wanted to voice my opinion after I saw these last few posts, and what a better place to do it then here… Cheers!

                            I recently bought the navy oxford. the shoe seems to be really well build, i like it alot! The smell of the leather is great as well, comparable to the smell of an fresh oob Aero jacket 😉

                            The finish is awesome, as is the fit.

                            I´m a 10.5 bd in the barrie, trubalance and 11bd aberdeen (Alden). I took a 10.5bd in these as well. Perfect.

                            Just one thing: I hope those shoelaces will last for a long time, because if they wont, I have to order another pair from George because I actually don´t think I can buy such cool shoelaces any where around.
                            Id take some pictures but rented my camera to my mom..  😛

                            Guys, buy them! you won´t be disappointed 😉

                                      You should get in touch with George and ask him.  He does carry some sizes in stock.  I got my first pair within a week…..G

                                        if he has them in stock, no. if he doesn´t have them in stock I can´t tell.. maybe 6 weeks max?

                                        He told me that he´s trying to build up a stock but that people are buying too many shoes so he can´t..  😞
                                        not the worst problem to have but still a problem.. ^^
