I am anxious. Supposed to get my Color 8 full straps today. Not sure. The FedEx site is showing me some funny stuff.

I am really curious to see how they look. I have wanted a pair of full straps for a while. Though I was mainly hoping for Cigar, but it's hard to beat Seconds deals.

Does anyone know why my cxl would be "buckling" in the arch area? I have 2 other pairs of Indys (suede and 401 black calf) in the same exact size, and don't have this issue with those boots.

Is it size related, poor cutting/stitching in the factory, a bad piece of cxl, or maybe just the nature of cxl?

I wore them out all day, and this started to develop after a few hours, and wondering if I should send back to Unionmade?





Thanks!

Does the Grant last run large? I am a size 10D on a brannock and the 9.5D fits me on the Barrie last. Do I get a 10D or a 9.5D on the Grant last?

Most would get 10 and that is where I would start.. A seeming minority get their barrie size in grant - grant is Iin the middle of the alden last spectrum but towards the generous side oft middle (and barrie is the widest alden last except for trubalance and modfied.).

Thanks..

Great looking boots Uncle Mac.

I want to get into boots, but the last time I tried some the shaft was really constricting on my ankles. Yours look pretty tight kinda like the way I wore mine. Maybe I'm just not a boot guy? Is there some kinda secret to them not being so tight on the ankles?
