Been on a roll upping my footwear game recently.

Bought yesterday, received today. Never thought I would own a pair of Clinch engineers. Holy hell these are nice!

I think they go well with the pretty shiny leather on my Frobisher. It may not look it by the expression on my face, but I'm ecstatic!

Also picked up a pair of the ready made anniversary Boondockers from Role Club.

Jeo, I don't know what you had before. But dang, upping your boot game to Clinch and Role Club is one hell of a double home run.

I’m going in the opposite direction of Jeo— sneakers. Wolverine, Harley, Converse for sale for $50 or less. Too many colors to count. And my calluses are gone too lol.

Had some nice stuff but nothing like these Clinches.

It can be argued that a pair of chuck t’s is all one really needs.

Not sure about chucks on rainy days or after middle age lol

I’ve got some leather chucks and wolverine high top sneakers. If middle age is the cutoff I’m screwed lol.

My boots are still in the closet and I do still frequently wear them to work. But a nice sneaker is like laying on a huge satin pillow for me.

These 2 guys here are the ones I've been wearing the most... I also have a pair of JLB M43 in my main rotation, but those are in Japan currently, correcting some defects under warranty

The fabric can be waxed. But for my taste, I like Palladiums better than Chucks.

I try to not wear canvas sneakers in the rain, no need to when I have leather boots and shoes. They don’t help on cold days much either!

Here’s my footwear from the other day, Lofgren derbies in natural CXL:

New review up on XBXS boots. Sort of semi-controversial in the boot nerd world so this was interesting to film.

Countless custom boots bought and sold i have come full circle lol. Some new 10875s from my local red wing shop. First pair of “nice” boots were 10875s i bought about 15 yrs ago. Ended up gifting them to my brother. Looking to get some wear into these. Other than my custom black jacks on order (8 mths waiting) pretty much gonna try to wear these hard and my new rw 8111 iron rangers. Dont feel as bad beating them up and hard to beat the leather, qaulity control, overall construction for the price.

Nick's with Lazy Boy Zips. 45rpm jeans.

I love these vintage Frye boots:

And they match well with this Kurland…

 

[jeo]

@handymike That's amazing! I don't think I've seen this one from you. Can you please post more pics of the jacket?

Btw, love the boots too! Are those Frye harness boots?

Old pic of me with mine. So upset I sold them! The jacket is H&M and one of the first I bought right out of school once I started to make a little bit of money.

 

[handymike]

These are the same but without any straps. From the 80s I think.

 

[jeo]

Those are awesome, leather looks spectacular.

 

[handymike]

It feels a lot like Horween.

Just unboxed these White’s boots, MTO. They got a couple of details wrong, as whites not infrequently does! But overall I’m pretty happy with them.

 

[Leatherbirdsoul]

Sharp choice Lina. Leather soles and Quabaug heels!
