      Riff

      those need polish. Shoes tell so much about the wearer. Badly maintained boots vs. well taken care of…

        The pics make me remember why I love SD's. They look equally amazing pampered or worn hard, they really are the ultimate utility boots.

          I like the look of a beat up pair of boots.  It means they were used for their intended purpose.  Much like denim.  I probably will oil them before winter though.  I'm really liking these.

              Why do you guys actually find white's that fit you on ebay?! Curses 😃

              Seize the day and don't you cry.

                Haha. Well I've only tried on the Semi-Dress and the 8.5D fit me well with thick socks. I got SmokeJumpers in 8.5 and Outdoorsman(lace to toe, more flexibility in the toe box) in 8. I don't think I'm THAT far off. You just never really know until they're on your feet. Also, when youre paying 25-40% of the retail price I think you have room to take risks.

                            My SD's arrived back from James Taylor and Sons today from their resole.

                            To be honest, I don't know if I'm happy or not. The quality of the workmanship seems to be very good, but it is definitely not the sole I asked for. I might just live with it though.  :-\

                                Mega, I think they look good. I prefer a block heel but those are fine. Do you not like how aggressive they look or something?

                                  They are not what you asked for are they mate? In fear of vexing you I think the heel/commando combo looks weird.

                                  Send em back and demand satisfaction (demand nicely though 'cos, you know, we're English)

                                    I definitely specified a Vibram composition half sole, or a Vibram mini lug sole, just my taste really. The quality of the workmanship is fine, but it's just not what I wanted.

                                    I have emailed James Taylor and Sons to register my disappointment, especially considering their reputation this is a real elementary error on their part. I have suggested that they should either rework them free of charge, or provide a refund to allow me to get the rework done elsewhere.

                                    What really pisses me off though is that the full lug sole is exactly the sole I sent them with to be replaced, plus I specified exactly what I wanted, spoke to them on the phone, emailed them pictures, and even sent them hard copies of pictures showing the exact profile I wanted to achieve with the soles I requested.

                                    This is turning into a random rant now  😠

                                          The heel wasn't changed Ed, they didn't carry what I wanted so I was planning to have that done separately. Oddly, the heel is the only bit I can't blame them for.

                                          The quality of the workmanship is fine to be honest, they didn't stitch the Vibram on, but you'd be hard pushed to find many Rapid E machine in England.
