    Those grey Kudos are sick. Perfect shade of grey. Just ordered the ss2010 destroyed black from Barneys. The black and white were one of my all time favorites. Not sure how black and black is going to look (and fit) irl.

      enders - one of my laces broke when I originally bought mine, and i managed to get some spares from the shop i bought them from - they requested them from augusta - you should ask......i am sure it shouldn't be an issue

          Wow, those Augusta derbies look great. If only the leather was destroyed, linen covered and rubber dipped.

          Seriously though, those are my favorite Augustas in a while.

            Eton, they did that for you? Asked my store which didn't seem to be getting any so I contacted Simone personally. He said that he would ship some out, haven't got any yet but I'm pretty sure he's a busy man!

            Enders, they look really nice! Are your toes at the far front? Mine where so DAMN tight that I though my feets where going to break, and I have like 1-2 cm left of shoe in the front.

              i have some wiggle room up front, but i seem to have the correct size. no discomfort other than the top of my foot from the hard leather yet to be broken in. it's augusta size 12 for 44. which seems unusual since i am usually augusta size 10..

                Bestial. Yep they did that for me.....I bought them originally from pollyanna last season, and they sorted it out for me. The customer service from Fred, Mark and the team is great.

                Are yours ok now? 1cm sounds like its pushing it on size, but 2cm should be fine. I'm a 9 in augusta and went for 9 in these. They started off pretty tight, but are perfect now. Removing the inset helps.

                Magic. In response to your PM......Atelier

                On the derby side of things, I struggle to decide which aesthetic I prefer between the toe shape of my poell derby, or a rounder toe cap like the augusta's I just posted.
                Although I love my CCP's, I think I prefer a rounder toeshape, so looks like I'm going for these. Blasphemy on the vin diesel front.....shoot me

                  Augusta

                  Does anyone have the stocklist for Augusta for women or info on who carries smaller sizes in mens last? Also Simone's email?

                    Eton, that's good! I guess my case have fallen through the cracks, but we'll see how it goes. Don't want to email and nag on everyone either.

                    I did get a sz 7, haven't seen smaller around. Could fit a smaller size now after that they have been walked in for a couple of months, but still, a bit too much room in the front.

                      The birth year of his grandmother (Augusta). He had to change it for legal reasons.

                        I'd say that pretty much sums up the conversation.

                        Personally, I prefer Augusta. As I'm sure he did. Don't really care for labels that include numbers. But it doesn't really matter.

                          do you know what legal reasons?

                            Do you actually really give a monkeys???

                            In terms of sizing some stockists go down to a size 6.
                            Possibly a wee bit smaller for the upcoming ss10 collection.
