RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
Barry's site does say the Lachlan was "Previously known as Drover", but that's not the boot RMW lists in their current catalogue and website as "The Drover". The link below shows the boot I was interested in. It's a top boot with a distressed mocha leather...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
Sorry if this has been covered here before, but I'm wondering how you guys go about placing orders for MTO boots? Do you order directly from RMW or do you go through someone else? I emailed RMW directly in Feb 09 to ask about the MTO Drover Boots and never received a reply. So in March I asked...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
to those with both Comfort Craftsman/Turnout/MTO/whatever and also another non comfort version, can you comment on exactly how much more comfortable the Comfort versions are? will it be something I miss dearly when my second boot arrives and it's not a Comfort version? I have a pair of...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
This month they introduced a new "dynamic flex comfort" sole. This uses a leather and rubber sole, with the leather under the arch. They have also slightly changed the innersole to replace the leather board insole with a cellulose board, and the steel shank has been replaced by fibreglass to be...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
Am debating Comfort vs. standard leather Turnout...has anyone had both? Am wondering if the Comfort is so much more comfortable that it's worth giving up the traditional leather-soled, more expensive look for. TIA! I have a pair of Gardeners with the leather insole, and a pair of Comfort...- arossphoto

He's sending me a catalog, so I'll report back on what's in it as far as ornamentation. Their catalogue is also available online in pdf: http://www.rmwilliams.com.au/home.as...D7EC09DCD59894- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
Here they look burgundy (and awesome!): http://www.bootsonline.com.au/topboots.htm But here they look kinda bleh. http://aussiebushhats.com.au/catalog...86ca4d3bef4e83 I don't know what the deal is with them, since I think they're supposed to be the same color in those two pics...

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
New poster here, I ordered a pair of black Blaxland Craftsman boots from ABH a week ago (they shipped the same day). I've been crossing my fingers that they show up sometime soon. Any luck with your boots yet? I'm considering ordering a pair of RM's and most people seem to recommend Nungar or...- arossphoto

Chelsea Boot Recommendations On A Budget
Just ordered a pair of Turnout boots in size 9G in chesnut from nungar trading, can't wait to get them in. I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but I'm still a bit nervous about ordering shoes online. I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience with nungar (delivery times, shipping...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
RMW's site specifically warns against the use of rubber oversoles. Apparently, they stop the leather sole from drying properly. Thanks for the tip. I just went to their site to see what they had to say about this. If anyone else is interested here's what I found: "If our customers do their part...- arossphoto

RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know
Will leather soles be completely useless for Toronto winters (snow, slush, salt, etc...)? I've been wondering about leather soles with rubber Topys applied to them. I know it wouldn't be as good as the composite sole if you were trudging through the snow and slush every day, but if the boots...- arossphoto

Frye boots versus RM Williams?
I size down an entire size with my fryes. They do loosen up some. If you purchase from zappos, you can return them for money back or a different pair (they'll pay for shipping even). Unfortunately, I'm in Canada, so zappos isn't an option. There is a Canadian version of their site, but for some...- arossphoto

Frye boots versus RM Williams?
I've heard the recommendations to buy a half size down and when I went to the store today I said I normally wear a 10, so the girl brought me a 9 1/2. No matter how hard I tried I could not get it on. So she brought a 10, and I got it on with some effort but it was really tight. A 10 1/2 was...- arossphoto

Frye boots versus RM Williams?
It's nice to hear so much positive feedback on the Brandos. I'm definitely leaning toward them over the RMW Turnouts. How did you guys find the fit after you worked them in? Did they loosen up much? I read this comment on zappos.com and it made me wonder if I should buy them a little bit tight...- arossphoto

Frye boots versus RM Williams?
Thanks for the replies. I've thought about ordering online, but I've read some horror stories about boots going MIA during shipping, very long delivery times, terrible customer service, etc. The ebay store is tempting, but they have very limited sizes and selection. I also haven't been able to...- arossphoto
