      I have some old school made in USA frye boots, they are tough as nails despite the leather having some holes from dropping the bike when I was still learning.

      Tried a pair of the more recent ones on and they just felt bad.

        This year I chose as my "shittiest weather/ deep snow/ harsh conditions" walking boots a pair of deep tread, waterproof, cap toed Israeli special forces boots (they cost me £1 from ebay). In a few minutes I will attempt to walk 2.5 miles to work in them, walk around at work all day in them, then walk home. I expect to be crying by the time I get home, but this is the best way that I have found to break in new boots  😢

            IJ, those Abingtons are amazing. They're still the most comfortable boot that I own.

                    No I dont wear boots in JA, or pants for that matter! I rediscovered cowboy boots about a year or so ago and it combines well with my IH mania…

                      i could imagine you walking along in those boots & the looks you would get from some of the locals. . .although i think some of the youths would actually pick-up the cowboy boot thing & run with it.

                      to get back on track dope boots & individual style, not my thing, but you can't knock it till you try it

                          Nice boots.

                          And I thought I had unnecessarily many boots with four pairs 😉

                                1. Hiking boots for rough use/hiking. (Danner mountain light)

                                2. Black "nice" pair for work (Doc Martens Ormond)

                                3. Brown "nice" pair for work (Alden Indy chromexcel)

                                That is pretty much what i use 95-98% of the time.

                                Seize the day and don't you cry.

                                  Really want to get a pair of these, mostly for when I am too lazy to deal with laces, can't find them on the red wing website though, anybody know what's up with that?
