The NR provides a little more booty it seems which is why I went with it. Was not as pronounced on the FA pattern as opposed to what I see on the jumper boot.

Why I own this

Custom
Style

Such a distinctive makeup and the pattern really allows you to showcase the leather

How I sized

Sent in pictures and measurements of my feet to Peter. We went back and forth based on those measurements as well as what I wear in other makers and they modified a last to fit my feet

Ordering process

Direct Message
Customer Service

Very straight forward and conversational. Peter is very familiar with other brands and spends quite a bit of time going through your measurements. There is a lot of back and forth before the order was placed
