    Balmoral Boots

    would very much depend on the last shape. as discussed on this thread, modern makers seem reluctant to attempt anything as contoured as the teens-early 20s boot lasts. or possibly they're just indifferent / oblivious to the difference. although i've bought some modern balmorals by Jeffrey West...

    Suits - Pre 1920

    yes, when you see it on the dummy, the shoulders look too wide for that 1918-22 style. the sleeve lining and overall finish looks nice. i can't make head nor tail of their website. not sure where you would buy it from.
