I don't wear leather jackets or boots much any more, but still enjoy dressing up when the temperature drops into the 60s F.

Ah I know that situation haha. But no. The only reason I want(ed) the Benzeins were because I wanted to try out Benzein as a company and I’ve been throwing around the idea of a pair of Chelsea’s. Not a huge fan of LTT boots/Monkey Boots. So I’ll pass on these ones.

Got it, I love lace to toe boots but are they ever a pain to get on/off at times

I think Chelsea is the boot that Benzein does best in terms of form and it's last. @JCSD Also took the toscanello service boots and looks like he is a fan of the company now too lol

Yeah def a nice quality build boot for the price. I still gotta have my local boot guy work the heels as he does almost every pair. I am pretty crazy about the heels being tight and even all the way around lol
Sorry for the late reply here, but wondering what you have done to improve the fit around your heels?

Loving these Benzein styles. I feel a new money pit developing.

Get after it! Homie don’t play. You’ve leveled up your leathers, boots, and denim. What’s next?

I think that's it for now lol I'm good with 3 pairs of selvage jeans. Plenty of boots and jackets to rotate so I'm covered there too. Not really into watches or jewelries so I won't go that route. I hope that's me but maybe more boot socks.

I did get a brown belt from pigeon tree, he's a member here I just don't know his handle. Peng will graciously send a belt with the boots, if he sends a natural leather belt then I'll be inclined to buy a black one

@dudewuttheheck you posted your attractions engineers a while back. Along with Lofgrens, they are in my opinion the nicest shape/profile for an engineer. I have a pair of lofgrens in the natural but I would really love a pair of those black attractions. What model are those exactly and where can I buy them?

Dude, I wish I had discovered quality socks earlier in life. Getting over the hump of paying $20/pair was difficult, but I'm a Darn Tough convert. When you think about how comfortable good socks are, the cost per wear, and the fact you wear them daily, it makes sense to forgo the Costco pack and treat yo'self.

Mine are the lot. 444. (black veg tan horsebutt.) Just email them and tell them which size you want. I would suggest going over to their website/online store first to make sure your size is in stock.
