^ Uncle, do you have a link to a specific post detailing the Mac Method? I tried searching the forum but I couldn't find a thread that went through the whole process in detail...

Just picked these up from the shoe mart.....chamois tobacco indy boot with commando sole. The photos I saw online made these look kind of weak, but in person this is a smooth looking boot!

I'm cross posting from the C&J thread. If anyone can give me any opinions, I'd appreciate it. I'm going to have to put in a special order from a company based in the UK since no one locally carries C&J. I'm trying to do my best guesstimate as a return would be a pain in the butt.

For last 337 on the C&J, I am sure I'm either a 7 or 7.5...but I'm not sure which one. Again for reference, I'm a 7 UK in Tricker's last 4444, and a 8.5 US in Alden's Grant and Plaza lasts, and 8 US in Alden's Trubalance, Barrie, and Modified lasts.

Thoughts on these J Crew x Alden LWB? I just received them today, and am unsure. The color is a little lighter than I wanted.

J Crew also has the dark brown, but I don't like the black sole.

Hi, I do not have that shoe but I have always liked it. What I do have it Leather Soul's Dark brown calf longwing and Cigar shell longwings.



If you plan on getting a Cigar longwing in the future then you may wish to pass on the calf. Same with the J Crew.....if you plan on getting Whiskey or Ravello shell then you may wish to send them back. I do love the cark brown calf....I just need to wear them more.

Also I have some questions. Does anyone have any opinions on Lady Calf:


VS Chromexcel:


Any pics of these with these with some miles:



I love the thought and think a red brick sole on a calf boot would look nice.

Also, Still loving these every time I see them:
