for those of you who have asked regarding the loyalist shoe, no they are not straight lasted but they said if enough of us wanted that they would take it into consideration...
They did make mention to us, as Jack already posted, that they would be changing the buckle... Hey GoF, you may want to contact them and be their buckle man...
should make arrangements then for one when you come down with Silkie... in the spring there are about four or five up every morning tis nice...
