Those look great. Will definitely be excited to see the update.
Nice did they come with leather insoles?
Brilliant! 8 pairs of boots for less than a packet of cigarettes,..
The Attractions look like WW2 Japanese army boots (just a rough guess, I've not seen a real pair of Japanese army boots), but the profile look very military, instead of motorcycle or 1930s.
Oh yes, already received much praise from friends on the wavy crease.Blackadder, I really like these "cracking" grains, very badass. The horsebutt leather is just amazing, so tough, dense and has started showing wavy creases, and it's not as heavy as the Horween horse, however, the Buco is also Horween horse and not as heavy, so being Horween doesn't equal to heavy. Maybe only the oil-pull cowhide used on the Wesco and Original Chippewa burgundy are heavy due to the oil.
Just bought a brand new 1956 Red Wing catalogue, back then they have so many models of engineer boots, steel toe, non-steel toe, high heel, low heel, many to choose from (as long as they are not the same last), one pair lift, try a different pair, not like today, only the 2269 and 2990.
Just placed an order for custom Boss - Burgundy, Harness toe and 430 soles. As it's a minimum 14 week delivery, I'm getting them sent to my US holiday hotel in early July and saving a packet in international delivery and customs fees.
Now the long wait...:sleep:
