@T4920 you could contact the store of they can lower the value on the box so you pay less import fees and taxes.. otherwise in the end the price will be around the same, at least that’s my experience!

[T4920]

@Heavy_blue maybe I'll just fly out to Japan and buy in person...

two pairs and the flights will pay for themselves

@T4920 sounds like fun

@T4920 i know nothing about import fees but can share an experience. I paid import fees on lofgrens that were purchased from a store in Canada while I'm in the United States. I paid $40 in import fees

[T4920]

@marco23d thanks for the info! In all seriousness I'm genuine considering taking my next vacation to Japan with boots as an alterior motive ahaha... I've been once before but didn't go to Tokyo, seems like a nice excuse to revisit this beautiful country

[marco23d]

@T4920 i really wish i had thought ahead and brought an empty piece of luggage with me on my last trip. i had to skip out on a few pairs because i had no space

[popvulture]

@marco23d thanks for sharing this — I’ve never been charged duty but wondered what it’d be. $40 isn’t nothing, but I’d previously worried it might be a lot worse.

I got my Lofgrens from Speedway and don’t recall having paid duty.

My two pairs of Yuketen Alan boots handmade in Mexico, one in khaki calf suede and the other in black calf, with Chicken. Two more months of wearing these exclusively for the Stitchdown Patina Thunderdome.

[init616]

Grant stone brass in maduro shell for today

[motojobobo]

@init616 those look real nice!

Thrilled with these new Chelseas. Viberg for Division Road in a CF Stead waxed suede. I wanted a boot for work and play that was somewhat hardy but could dress up. 2030, my favorite last. Ticked all the boxes. Very pleased after months of looking for the perfect build.

[Mizmazzle]

@Karol those are sweet!! How’s the sizing compared to Iron Rangers? Looking to maybe get some Nicks to turn into hiking boots.

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey yea bro!! Dig that leather!!

[popvulture]

Yeah those Viberg chelseas are sweet, been eyeing those quite a bit lately. Luckily I haven't been able to find my size.

[mclaincausey]

Thanks fellas. I wish I could capture the color a little better. It’s a bit richer and darker than they appear. These are my first non-stitch down Vibergs and they are impeccable. Over the moon with em.
