    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I guess your work doesn't involve people licking your boots? j/k Seriously, you are right. We dress up for our own sakes. However, I think there may be a subconscious effect. Like that meme, but she doesn't know the reason she is discarding her panties.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    No, really, how do you feel about Natural CXL? :-) Seriously. Although I like the look of Natural CXL, I don't actually have much that goes with it. Push comes to shove, black and brown, sometimes Burgundy/maroon (Color #8) is all I really wear.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Insured against what? Theft? Damage? A single pair? Some of things might be covered by your homeowner's or renter's insurance, but would likely not be enough to meet your deductible. Unfortunately, damage to boots is almost expected--especially if you're wearing them as intended. Even at...

    I got my two new pairs of Grant Stone boots and am generally quite pleased with them. My Castagno boots are comjng along nicely. The last is truly a comfortable, incorporating solid orthopedic principles, as one would expect given the experience of the team. My question, though, is should the...

    Official: STAR WARS THREAD. These are the droids you're looking for. **WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS

    The guy who made that video seems awfully full of himself. He is basically saying that people get too caught up in minor plot holes rather than appreciate the movie as a whole. Fair enough. As he also says, if the movie has something that is too obviously ridiculous, then that can ruin it...

    I might make the cut-hole a tad bigger and put a purely-decorative row of stitches around. The shape is good, though. Here is an example purely for comparison from one of your competitors.

    So, I just decided to get both the Diesel Black CXL and the Ottawa Dune CXL. I also had a nice little chat with Wyatt through their website. I am really delighted to support a company that emphasizes quality and substance over hype and artifice.

    I think to take 15% off, they would need to be called Tourist Loafers.

    These do look good. If you spell it Traveller, you can price them 15% higher. :-)

    Hmm, now I'm wondering if I should get a pair of Diesels in Black CXL or Ottawas in Natural CXL...The Natural CXL looks cool, but is harder to incorporate into my understated wardrobe. How does GS do with CXL clicking and the dreaded loose-grain?

    Wow, these are impressively nice boots. Badalassi Castagno veg tan is very sweet. Level of finish is super high. Plus, they fit great. Last is both supportive and attractive. Superb value. I can't wait to see how they break in, though they feel comfortable out of the box. Grade:A+ Thank...

    I have absolutely first-rate footwear from the USA, Britain, Italy, France, Japan, and Mexico. I will be delighted to add some from China. Your last sentence inspired a political joke, but I won't make it, out of respect for SF.

    Well, I went ahead and ordered some of the Diesel Castagno Veg Tan boots with rubber soles, in 10D. I am excited to see what they look and feel like IRL. I also very much believe that there is no reason a first-rate factory in China couldn't match the work of a first-rate factory anywhere...

    Grant Stone - Official Affiliate Thread

    Thank you, guys, that is all very helpful! Okay, I will give the 10D a try...Now, for a second question, are some of the boots snugger fitting than others due to differences in how the leather responds to the lasting process? I suppose presence or absence of a lining could also contribute. I...

    For guys who own Alden Barrie and GS Leo, is there any difference at all in length. Due to the low volume (my heels are narrow, but the forefeet are only a bit so) of my feet, I am a little tempted to go down a half size (9.5) from my Barrie (10), which is a tad longer than I need...however, I...

    JM Weston appreciation thread

    You have a beautiful collection of JM Westons. I only have three pairs. (Le Demi-Chasse in tan, Le Golf in black calf and brown suede) I enjoy the aesthetic. I especially like their more robust models. At least in the USA, it can be hard to get them at good prices compared to some of the...

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    I would like to see a side-zip 2050 in some medium brown waxed flesh on a Ridgeway. A Chelsea like this would be nice too. Brown edges. A 2030 stitch-down service boot in Red Dog rough-out with antique brass eyelets. You could put this on a Ridgeway or Commando. Natural edges. I love the...
