      Just read this out loud in the office.  Paula is blushing, every one else is in hysterics…..

          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

          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.

              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/

                                  I feel the same way Snow Man, I think I'm more boot obsessed than denim obsessed at the moment  😞

                                    can´t wait to pick up my pair from customs on monday/tuesday…pretty stoked 😘

                                    btw. anyone want to open a "pictures only" thread?
                                    i´d do it, but i´d do it the way that one post per contestant only...and just with a few "standard" pics...like you guys would send me your specs and pics and i´d post´em in the thread all at once, so that we have a nice list of pics and all that...but sorted! 🙂
