Looking forward to pics of the forest kudu boots, do post some. It's a bit of a left wing choice and not many seem to have picked them up. Love the color but I'm personally not a fan of the kudu leather (for wearing myself) and so did not consider picking them up. Eager to see some pics of your pair!
Took a few since realistically I won’t be getting much else done this afternoon anyway. Tried to show a couple different lightings (inside/outside) to give a better sense:
The green is unusual but wth, only love once. I really like the contrasting welt, and the grain and variation of the leather. It’s got a looser grain on the upper and denser at the toe, maybe you can see it here a bit:
You can tell it was skin which I like. To the touch it is extremely soft and supple. Out of the box they’re just immediately impressive. I can’t comment on wearing kudu generally but this is my first wear and they were supremely comfortable right out of the box. These are 7.5EEE so shape of the boot may vary for someone with more slender feet as my shoe modeling career won’t be going anywhere. Though it isn’t clear in the pics above, in less bright light they are quite dark, like greenish black.
Those are great! My wife would make endless fun of me if I did wear socks with loafers, lol. California thing I guess.
Haha, perhaps! New England here so she’s got different associations. She’s not a fan of loafers at all, really, but I’m still trying to change her mind.
