      @zwer:

      Chris opted out of the comp! Mine should be in mid-late April, which also coincides with Urb's next visit, I think. Take the boots out for a night on the town (if he doesn't do himself in with Crown Royal again).

      Ha ha ha. No more Crown for me.

              Just to put it in perspective, if anyone is complaining about wait times then I've got another three to four months to go. This is similar to what I'll be in.

                It certainly could be worse- these took over a year from order to delivery, and they came in 3-4 months ahead of schedule…

                                No leather liner? With all due respect, that's a mistake  :o

                                  Why?  That's a heavy enough leather that a liner isn't necessary for the boot to hold its shape, and since it's rough out, the smooth side of the leather is on the inside, so a liner wouldn't be an improvement in feel.  Boots will be cooler without the extra leather, too.

                                    I disagree about the feel. Smooth side of leather is nothing like say a calf liner
                                    At least on Aldens. Mabey whites liner is much different
