Wow, you put a lot of thought in to it. I just wear mine and what will be will be. I don't do the Mac break in method or any if these other 'tricks'.
Went with the Leffot tobacco chamois LWBs today.
I feel good. Not even the crappy carpeting in my hotel can get me down.
Creasing setting in after a 20 minute walk.
Went snuff today for the first incling of spring
King LWB today.
Maiden Voyage!
Wait time has expired. Maiden voyage
@McBear my whiskey LWB are creased to hell and back because of my odd shaped foot, but I don't let it get to me. I don't think any "trick" would have helped these except not wearing them.
Wearing mine today too.. different strokes for different folks but I couldn't be more pleased with how these are aging.
Just love Whiskey on the rocks!
most will say Ravello or Whiskey but I would say CXL
Getting a bit of "antique edgification fatigue". The NSTs look good but somehow it feels wrong to me.
I hear you, the Navel is pretty nice but neither will be getting ordered by me.
Had to join in with the Ravello action that's been happening over the past few days.
Yea they do!
had them for a week.. sucks that they were a bit too small!! argh
Comparison of Alden Ravello to Carmina Cognac.
whiskey LHS
What do you guys think about these shoes with dark denim/ in general? I'm in a very casual work environment. Yes or no?
ravello x leffot
Quite a day, I received three pair of Aldens! Whiskey WTBoots, Cigar Balmoral (catch and release) and Ravello Cap Toe Boots
The WhiskeyWTB I can't wait to get rolling but these Ravello boots are crazy fantastic
With Anatomica's Ravello
I thought the new Cigar Chukkas were dark and I was going to let them go.. here is a comparison w Cigar WTBoot, Balmorals way too dark for me..
WTBoots because I can't help it and have to give my friend their camera back soon ; )
so..the Balmoral's are going back/too dark&fancy for me, if someone wanted to trade for the Whiskey (or Cigar) Chukkas (7.5D) for 7D of an NST in Cigar or Ravello PM me : )
Here is Whiskey Chukka w new WTB
what kind of polishing cloth does everyone use on their shells?
cotton tees? flannel clothes? can i use soft microfiber towels?
I hear you. I thought the jcrew was pretty much a straight copy too. That one seemed odd bc they sell the Indy. Takes a bit of cheek (maybe chutzpah is the right word) to then also sell an uninspired knockoff too. But it's allowed.
It boils down to authenticity and how much you care about quality shoes. Imagine a college student really wanting indys, and they found another pair that looks exactly like it, only cheaper. The average person won't know the difference. Yea to us who know about these things denounced these brands, but I think the average person wouldn't care. Kinda how h&m makes Caborn's camermansTrue, but usually they try to differentiate themselves somewhat. This one doesn't even try it look a bit different. I didn't mean 'how is this legal' literally.

They are fantastic but I have my fill of PCT boots at the moment with my AE cappuccino Bayfields. If I was not holding onto those I probably would jump on the preorder tomorrow.
SF Friends...given the choice would you choose the Leffot #8 Naval boot or the Fran's Boone #8 Parajumper in #8 with brass eyelets? I have the JCrew PCT boot in #8. I was leaning towards the Leffot Naval boot because of the antique edge
Thoughts?

get to 100 posts ; )
call the stores and get on lists
those who hesitate are lost
Ok, I will bite… I think that if you have the JCrew PCT (which I do), both of those options are pretty well redundant.
Cotton tees and some cotton fleece-y material I got at at a fabric store. Synthetic shirt material (caplilene and the like) works well for the final touches. I found a synthetic fleece polishing glove to be to grabby.what kind of polishing cloth does everyone use on their shells?
