The barrie boys got a bit of TLC last night with the deer bone and brushing until my arm fell off:

Also, does anyone else have this happen to their boots, where the stitching of the front of the quarter onto the vamp comes undone? This is now my second pair that has done this (different lasts), but same side (left side/left boot). Wondering if it's something with my foot or what... will likely send back to Alden for a repair once winter is in full swing, but still a bummer, as these are fairly new (20ish wears).

It has happened to my Natty CXL Indys and my Natty CXL NSTs. I’m not trying to start a Natty conspiracy, just stating the facts as they relate to my boots with the same issue.

Throwing it back old-school. I’ve owned these since 2005 and think my wife bought them as NOS even back then.

I've never experienced anything like that.
