HEAVYWEIGHT BOOTS CHAMPIONSHIP 2013 - 2015

[Megatron1505]

My plan is to wear mine daily, in just about all situations, and look after them as well as I can. Simple

I wonder if it's worth a rough post on boot health/hygiene….?

I do monthly clean/conditioner/(next day) polish on my RM Williams work boots, if they get really messed up I do emergency work, but generally being a desk jockey, once a month is good enough to keep the leather in top shape....

On the Viberg's that've just arrived not even thought about how to look after them, they need far more wear first

I think a boot maintenance thread is a good idea. I can't be the only one who would like to know how other people take care of their boots.

Just to be clear… the taller toe is a result of the celastic toe box, correct?

No box toe:

With box toe:

I'm gassin' for these boots now… I really hate you guys.... stop posting nice things.

[Finn666]

correct!…

[Zentner]

Hot sex. I really love the slim look all around on that boot (I know that's a bit of a faux pas around here) but it works a little better for most of my skinny cut jeans… I might even be able to get away with wearing them in the office.

Just got my Dark Brown French Calf Bounty hunters today! SO EXCITED TO PUT THEM ON! THEY ARE SO PRETTY…... they're already so shiny right out of the box.... hurts me to even put laces on in fear that they'll scratch lol.... well here are some instagram photos, will upload better photos soon

[Megatron1505]

My burgundy/natty cxl bounty hunters will be here on Monday can't wait.

[Snowy]

Lovely SS.

[Megatron1505]

Nice, looking forward to seeing how they age. What care products are you thinking of using?

[Nerkg]

Is that nat cxl?

[Highvoltage]

Yes, natural CXL.

I'm not sure what I'll use on them, maybe obenauf's. I've always just used the Redwing boot conditioner, and haven't had an issue. I switch it up for these.

[Finn666]

^ these are high voltage! brilliant pair mate…

[Friday]

Backed!! Brilliant indeed.. Congrats

[Highvoltage]

Thanks…I'm very pleased with them. I went back and forth between options, and went with my first choice, and I'm glad I did. They are very comfortable. The high arch will take some getting used to, but my foot doesn't move, plenty of room, no pain. They are going to be perfect for two years wear!
