Interested to see how different the color comes out than the ones I posted above

[Seul]

Yours are navy, right?.. These will be cherry… So unless you were blessed with b/w vision, these will be considerably different...

[bagley920]

No, I have the dark brown, about 4 posts up. I'm guessing the cherry would be more reddish

Hmmm, not sure those are different enough for me…

Different sole, stitched welt, different insole,… I might grab these... That cherry red

Just picked up a pair of the trail shoes in brown from Independence in Chicago. These shoes are amazing. I put them on and proceeded to walk all over Chicago in comfort. The leather is rediculous. I almost want to roast some potatoes and greens and pour some sauce all over the leather it's so aromatic and oily. Originally was going to go for the navy cxl, but I figured the brown would be more suitable for my needs. One of the guys at Independence had a well worn pair of the navy and they almost had an indigo denim transformation going on..  The navy was starting to turn a teal color in places of wear.  Beautiful.

That cherry color gets to me. These might be my next purchase as far as shoes.

Some new styles out… This particular pair is very nice imo!..

I just wish George would do a few more with real heels…..

Wise choice, my friend.

Quick question, I got some of the chamois camp boots last year - best cleaning product anyone please?

[Seul]

Their Venetian cream works miracles imo (available through the OSB website, just ask George to send through First Class Int'l mail instead of UPS)…

ugggh, im tempted, but I have a feeling that this is a brand where I am between sizes, as my size 10's are borderline too big.  Am considering the 9.5, but no returns on sale items means it would be a $200 crap shoot.  I should have just stuck to my guns in the beginning and went for the Bakers oxfords….
