The biggest worry I have is I have some other boots (admittedly not CXL, and more casual stuff), where the top leather start to get scratched / scuff and you can see the fibrous leather texture underneath e.g. you can see the suede inside. To me that suggests, that the boot is going to be a lot...

Not an outerwear question, but a boot question. I have a pair of CXL John Lofgrens- am I good to wear them in places they will get stepped on a lot? I often go to busy bars / clubs and have been avoiding wearing these boots there (the last time I wore them to a bar, someone spilled some beer on...

The jacket is goregeous, but I think i mayu pass on it. My wardrobe is full and it seems too similar to my brooks cafe racer However, it does look thicker than my brooks...
