                  sorry, was not able to respond right away.
                  YES, they're "Tug Of War" in reversed waxed kip leather.  the boot shaft is a 1-pc, single leather all around [ie, no back seam].  the leather gauge seemed a tad thicker than my SJ rough-outs.

                  not really a hit in the "charm" department _,  but out of the box,  the epic boot construction is quite apparent.  IMO, they're  boots that "walk the walk".  the triple leather sprung-toed sole puts a roll on the stride.  i'm thinking,  maybe, once the boots break in & the soles start to flex,  the roll could turn to spring.

                  1st couple of days,  'twas like walking in a pair of Dutch wooden clogs … quite stiff & no "give" at all.  start of its 2nd week & it's starting to turn a corner,  literally ;).  the vamp is stretching & the shaft  is starting to soften up due to the additional oiling [i'm guessing].  if the reverse waxed kip is anything like the SJ R/Os,  they'll be fab & comfy in about a month or so.

                  hopingly,  the experience won't be ardouous what the model name implies 🙂

                  @simonc:

                  Brown Icon what leather is that, tell us about the specs.  Are they the 268T?

                  @Anesthetist:

                  Me too! Those Lennons look amazing. More info please!_

                          Received shipping notice from Baker's today. Should have my Bounty Hunters on Tuesday. I have a ton of hours between now and then, so hopefully it flies by.

                                      From box to foot in no time at all, now my bottom half feels totally heavyweight.

                                      Better pics later.
