They look awesome Nate, how do they feel straight out of the box?

[natehate]

thanks mega
a bit stiff, and almost like i have room at the toes, but upon the squeeze test i dont know if i do have room
i think they will break in nice thou and form to my feet

[Jesselirola]

Nate - what size are those - are they the 1950 service boot?

[joesaintjohn]

Nate, those look freaking awesome!!! I love them. So jealous right now, you guys. Bold flavors. Bad boy city. Top shelf.

[natehate]

thanks joe. its a very oxblood color in person the merlot
i copied the take 5 boot you can see on one of the early pages of this thread
jess theyre a size 13 and yes the 1950 service boot with the sprung toe
g did you ever get yours? i know you ordered a very similar boot

[madmonday]

nice timeless build nate, only thing i would have done different is the front sole would be a vibram 430, 700 or 705.

can't wait to see you put some miles on them

[urbanwoodsman]

MM, I think after a few rainy/snowy days he'll realize a 430 will be his first resole option.

shane i'm loving the leather brother
even after i fall im just gonna get mad look at my boots and get all puppy dog "oh how could i stay mad at you when you're so pretty"
and get back up and keep going

[urbanwoodsman]

I know haha.

But after busting your ass enough you'll learn.

[natehate]

only time will tell
next boots i get will have a sole to be more winter friendly

Killing time waiting in the car while my daughter is crashed in the back seat and my wife is off shopping.

[thomasnunnally]

Love em Chris….I think you need to post pics more often!

[Chris]

Only two things prevent that, Tom- 1) I rarely wear anything interesting, mostly just jeans and tee shirts, and 2) I'm profoundly lazy.

[MikeC]

At least he admits it. Is that the waxy flesh WWII leather?

[Chris]

Nope, loden green smooth leather.

[joesaintjohn]

Chris, those are mean green…

[natehate]

chris 1950 or 40?
and well played i dig them

[Finn666]

what a great looking boot that is Chris! love'em…

[Chris]

1940, I believe.  I'll check the box when I get back to Houston to verify.

[natehate]

I think the only difference is the stitching around the top of the shaft
