^They look amazing! Congrats!
-
F'n ay, MCL! Great look mate, those sole got me considering that for the second pair EXACTLY like that
-
Amazing boots! ^^
-
They feel so good. Like they were made for my feet, which are somewhat narrow with high arches, to those wondering if the RC would work for them.
The soles are so cool. About as thick as a nickel is wide on the front. Immaculate carving and stitching by Takeshi.
Thanks guys for everything.
I really think VEB's Buco belt and antiqued buckles will look awesome with these.
Now that I have them, all those thoughts of blackening are a distant memory. I love the rich color as it is.

There he is! How's it going Dom?! I completely agree with MikeC on all accounts I've had several emails with him and his info is always helpful and educational.
Also agree with the Lofgrens and have been staying in touch with John about the next production run. Work boots just started about a week ago according to his email and he said proly be another production run beginning in the next few months for the engineers. I love the Baladassi and John also mentioned that companies like Hermes are buying up a lot of these tanneries so if you really live the boot if suggest dropping John an email expressing your Interest so hopefully all interested in baladassi leather will get a pair before they are no longer run. In the meantime if anyone sees some lofgren size 12s around for sake please send them my way as I am wanting to grab up black brown and the baladassi cognac. So glad to see VEB on here!
Kind words, thanks tatmantall and MikeC!! I'm just a simple guy with pricey passion.

Well…. Just heard from Jordan... Another 8 weeks now on the new Road champs.. :-\
-
8 weeks isn't too bad. The last pair I had to sell because they were just a hair too small. One of the biggest regrets of my life but if they don't work, they don't work…
-
Nerk is correct. A long apology was sent my way though… Things happen
-
ditto
-
It's Imrie right? Seems to be a low-scale operation. Fine once you have the goods but otherwise a drag!
-
yeah, For what its worth I was told in jordan's email that Imrie led them to believe that the production had started the first week of July. When asked today he stated, "production started today." shrugs whatcha gonna do :'(? outta of our hands. good things come to those who wait
...and make sure to post a shitload of pics when you do so!
