Thanks mate, piercing makes sense, I knew that the leather would be too thick to simply pin them which is why I thought they might be glued.
Thanks, I know what you mean about me the Clinch if you need volume in the foot these don’t work so well. I look forward to them darkening with wear.
Very nice mate! Your old Bucos are what made me really want a pair. What are the decorative conches that you have on each pair? Are they glued on? I know Fredy has something similar on his pairs
Finally pulled the trigger on the olive Clinch at VMC and as a bonus one of the team practically gave me his old Buco, which I’ll send to Masa (ex-Brass Tokyo) in Berlin to do some work to
@58panheadfan’s Buco have patinated so nicely I’m also severely tempted by those although I’m kinda between sizes and don’t (yet) have a black jacket - plus I know I’ll never wear mine as hard as Harry !
They’re currently my first choice too. My only reservations are that I would prefer a true brown (although I’m told these will go browner) and vegetable tanned leather (these are cxl). Also, they currently have a dress boot heel although at the first resole I could replace this with a woodsman
