We were able to get a few pair made of the popular RBPB1 boot in Mahagoni Shell Cordovan, and finished them in the factory with a different base of cream for a little different look than the chukka boot we have done in this same Shell color.

This boot is available on a VERY limited basis at this time.

Next new item is RBCB6, which is our first 2 eyelet chukka done in roughout calf called ‘Mohawk’.  On this boot we feature stitchdown construction and the Sestriere outsole……very nice!

Very happy with the way RBCB5 in Kudu Waxy came out.

Built on 95 last, this next 3 eyelet chukka boot features the Sestriere outsoles and is also in production in ‘Flint’, which is a nice charcoal color.  The Kudu Waxy has a fantastic hand….very mellow.

…and inside were a few specials -

Nice job, all!

Ron

in stock…..found enough to make 7 pair.  Should be available next week:

I did request one change…..I asked that the pattern include 9 eyelets, instead of the previous 5 + 4 pattern.  Six in one, half dozen the other to me, but some clients have asked for full eyelets, so I thought I would try it out and see what the reaction is.

edit – WERE PRODUCED THE NORMAL WAY….NEVERMIND!

We are getting our deliveries of both new and fill-in stock boots next week.  I will be working with clients at  Leffot on Thursday the 5th in NYC and getting everything organized as soon as I return here after.  And this blog is due for a big re-do…..will be working on it next weekend so you can see better what we have on-hand and coming.

RBCH1 will be available in the pictured ‘Gaucho’ color, as well as ‘Flint’, which is basically a charcoal color, for $595.

Next up is RBCB6, which is a new 2 eyelet chukka boot with Stitchdown (leather is folded out over the midsole and stitched with the Rapid stitcher) done in Mohawk roughout uppers on a Sestriere sole and heel.  Strong boot…..

Finally getting my head around everything here…..been on the road, catching up, other obligations on a personal side, etc.  Coming for Fall ‘09 we have here RBHB1, which has been shown a few times, and generated a good amount of interest so far.

This 4 eyelet boot features ‘Mohawk’ roughout uppers with Dark Brown calfskin on the heel counter.  Built on Sestriere outsoles we have included some handstitched details across seams on the upper as well as a padded collar. 

Retail price will be $595.oo and will be available in NYC at Leffot, in Denver at Andrisen-Morton and in Richmond at Franco’s.  The first delivery of 32 pair is expected here in around 3 weeks.

Please put November 5, 2009 on your calendars for our next Trunk Show at  Leffot  in NYC.  Already looking forward to it…..and feel free to contact Steven Taffel or myself for more information as the date approaches.
