      lovely! Still think they are better looking than the comparatively clumsy Tricker's Stowe.

              To me, chelsea boots have elastic on the side. Jodhpurs have no elastic, but do have a strap that holds the tongue tight. It looks like the two terms have become interchangeable, but, for what it's worth, most discussions you see on the net still maintain the distinction.

              Just to learn more: What is the difference between Chelsea boots (would have thought these were Chelseas) and Jodhpurs?

                Found these while on a "find a nice vintage-like hiking boot"-internet frenzy. Made in Italy, norwegian welt, beautiful full grain leather and a nice vibram outsole. There were loads of praising reviews on this boot online and I decided to take the chance re size and went TTS… And boy did it pay off. With some boots you just know if you hit the sweet spot and these are definitely it. Very stiff and will take some breaking in but I seriously love these. Plenty of space for a good insole and thick socks.

                Very affordable IMHO (150 € shipped from the states) for what you get. These aren't as nice as Danners or Vibergs obviously but I think these could be a great choice if you're on a budget. The only downside is that these don't have a leather lining but I can live with that. These are going to get a proper thrashing.

                AIAN HA-TO!

                    Perfect.  Roger was wearing a pair of them in japan last week and I was pretty smitten…..

                      Thank you G. After some talking with Roger I spied the linesman and after trying them on I was completely sold within a second. the leather and feel is awesome.

                      how about some more especially for you G?  🙂

                                Thx finn, thx demonito. Retail CHF 749, think in the online shop of rising sun they go for USD 750. i am very happy with these, different manufacturer, different outcome 🙂 its Julian making the boots for RS as I understand correctly

                                        nice.  wish i could get my wife to invest in some proper footwear.  unfortunately, if there is any sense of struggle or "need of breaking in" she wont do it.

                                            Well it was a struggle, but after showing her all her broken and decaying shoes that have accumulated in the house, I finally got her to pick up these boots, as well as a decent pair of heels.
