HEAVYWEIGHT BOOTS CHAMPIONSHIP 2013 - 2015

I'm thinking of changing my boot to:

Too dressy?

[Nerkg]

No chance against my natty cxl. Haha

[Megatron1505]

Bags, only you can decide that dude, personally they are too dressy for me. It would limit their "wear-ability".

[bagley920]

See, I think I'd be just the opposite. Just curious if these would look awful all scuffed up like normal boots

[Megatron1505]

Yeh, but the object of the competition is not to destroy your boots, it is to care for and assist in the beautiful aging of your boots over a two year period.

Honestly (unpopular thought warning), I think that the natty CXL guys will love their boots for the first year, and hate them by the end. Just my opinion.

[bagley920]

No matter what I go with, it won't be something that I wear everyday anyways as I can't wear shit kickers to work, which is why I think I might get a little more out of these, who knows…

[fanya]

A toe cap is too dressy for me for everyday wear but that's just me…

Why you say that? I've seen some beat pairs but I've seen some phenomenal pairs. All depends how you care/don't care for the cxl

[Megatron1505]

Haven't seen any two years old though, and like I say it's just my opinion.

[Nerkg]

[Finn666]

looking forward to tomorrow

[Megatron1505]

And again, just my opinion 

[madmonday]

think all the natty cxl pairs will just look dark brown or dirty depending at least from the one or two natty cxl items i have.

the patina i admire most show on dark brown smooth type leathers.  you see the nice scuffs & they get lighter then you buff them out or shine them up & do it all over again.

sorry i fell asleep, need images in here  way too much text . . . .  will work on that in a few .  . .
