J.FitzPatrick Footwear - GMTO
Tacoma GMTO - Reverse Patina - Ruby - Deposit Payment
Welcome to the Tacoma Patina GMTO!
The Tacoma oxford is one of Mr. FitzPatrick's personal favorites, and for good reason: This "swan neck" oxford is a study in simple elegance. Double stitching around the swan neck and a classic Papillon medallion on the toebox are the only adornments here, leaving the Tacoma a perfect canvas for a hand-dyed patina by artist Hancore.
The Ruby patina model seen here is the brightest of this month's colorways created by Hancore: A near-black vamp and heel are contrasted by bold red toeboxes and swan necks to result in a shoe that is undeniably aggressive. Wear it as you might wear a more classic burgundy shoe, with a navy or mid-grey trouser.
With GMTO pairs we aim to offer you big savings both on MTO fees and patina pricing. For example, the base price of a Tacoma oxford is $440; an MTO oxford fee is $150; and a patina oxford fee is $140. That means a total of $730, but we're letting these go for a mere $475!
Production time on patina pairs is around 5 months from the end of the GMTO order period, which will be the 2nd of May; you can expect your pairs to be ready to be shipped to you in early Autumn 2022. As a patina style, this shoe does not need to reach a 6-pair order minimum for GMTO pricing, so rest assured this style is going into production no matter what. Please note that the price listed here is a 50% deposit on the final price of $475, and the remaining balance and any shipping fees will be due upon completion of your pairs.

J.FitzPatrick shoes have a broad set of fit options, from true to size, on the slim side to more wide. It will be important to make sure you read about the specific last that you are looking to purchase.
One thing to note across the board is that our loafers have been cut on the snug side, compared to the rest of the models. We did this so that you do not need to 'size down' when going for a loafer, rather recommending you stick to your oxford size (**read exception below)
Here are a few general rules
- Our insteps would be considered generous
- All shoes with 6 eyelets will be even more generous in the instep
- Any model in full suede will feel more generous to its leather counterpart
- The boots have a forgiving instep in order for you to put them on easily
- Any monkstrap made on the MGF or LPB will feel more generous to its oxford counterpart
- If you wear your oxfords very snug, then size up for your loafers. However, for most we recommend taking the same size as your oxfords

The USPS 2-day priority mail service used within the US aims to arrive within 2-3 working days depending on location. This is not a guarantee, however. Your tracking number provided will keep you up to date with your parcel.
We look to ship out all purchases 1-2 working days after the time of purchase (weekends not included). During "Sale" periods we aim to ship between 2 -4 days after the time of purchase as the increase in orders affects our ability to be any quicker. Add-ons involving changes to your shoes (toe taps, rubber sole bottoms) will increase delivery time by 7-14 days. Custom patinas will increase delivery time by 14 days.
If you prefer another courier, such as UPS, USPS or FedEx and wish to pay the difference (if the one you want is more than the rate we pay to DHL), please indicate this in the notes section of your order. Any failure to do so, will result us using the DHL service. Before sending your parcel, we will send an invoice to cover the difference in pricing (should there by any).
Any and all import duties imposed by your local custom's officials on your parcel will be the responsibility of the customer to pay for. We do not control this and will not be held responsible for any surprises in charges as we do not impose them. Your government does. We declare the parcel at the value paid. We do no under-declare parcel values. Please do not ask us to do so.
Please note, if you reject your order for not wanting to pay the custom's import taxation, we will be charged a fee for the return shipping. This fee will come out of your refund as we will are not liable for this charge due to your error in ordering.
