@Nerkg:

Does rough out get a patina?

Patina? Idk

Does it show wear, hell yes. My SJ's that I'm using for this comp I had to stop wearing after about 10 times bc they were soaking up denim like a bounty paper towel

@simonc:

Get this I had a dream last night where I flew into a hospital inside a volcano and visited Mega with a bad leg, what's that all about?!

Scared now.

[simonc]

he had the bad leg and he burst out into the hallway as I entered.  Mega I woke more worried that you, trust me.  Has anyone else dreamt of anyone else on here, I wonder?

@toddjcoley:

what are people thoughts on this? Do you like the rough out? or go all leather?

Personally, I don't care for two tone boots.  That said, these look really nice and I think they would be more interesting to see in the contest.

Ha ha you guys make me go like a yo yo. any one see any serious issues in using rough out, indigo stains, life span etc

[Nerkg]

Some people love the look of rough out, some don't, depends what look you want . If I were you I'd look at worn pairs of smooth and worn pairs of rough out

[bagley920]

Those are bad ass IMO

Rough out is just as durable as smooth leather, some would even say more so.  Not sure about how to clean it; I've heard mixed things.

[Seul]

Clean it?.. What's that now?..

[FurattoHeddo]

Chris speaketh the truth, RO is also more self-healing than most smooth leather (scars, etc…)

Some info on cleaning, (have yet to try it myself): http://www.hangerproject.com/closet/blog/how-to-clean-suede-shoes/
