      ^Hehe!  You've got the fever!!!

      Here's my first every pair of Engineer Boots purchased in 1991 in a small shop in San Jose, California.  They're were made by Double H and cost about $90.  I wore these like it was no ones business (that's all natural patina).  Notice the western style heels.  They didn't start off that way - I wore the heels down so far before the initial re-heel that the cobler had no choice but to reshape them.  I had the heels replaced at least six or seven times over the span of four years.  I believe my parents still have these boots somewhere in their home.

              Love it. Engineers and A-2s. That's as good as it gets.

                        "Looks like" brown cxl - seems darker than the natty.  Beautiful boots, both.

                            I am wearing the Flathead x Viberg Boot Collab. Video coming soon.
                            Also wearing the IH-666s. I had just soaked these so they are still forming to my body.

                                  tbh. (and not to sound like a dick) but i really thought you were a man…now after seeing you for the first time (and not just your stunning vids!) it's really great to see that we finally have another female on board, that is into this like the rest of us is...a great thing to have 😉

                                  thanks for sharing all this goodness!...

                                        Thanks Giles.  🙂

                                        Finn, yeah I knew you guys thought I was a guy. Lol, it was funny reading replies calling me a dude or bud. Haha. I figured I might as well start showing myself since I am buying more IH and Viberg stuff.

                                        I've always been sort of a Tom Boy ever since I was little and growing up with too older brothers. I was usually made fun of for always wanting to hang out with the boys. I still have a girly side to me, but I much prefer quality and long lasting clothing over any of the stuff at the shopping malls these days.

                                        I guess I am a weird girl who enjoys the style and company of men over the company of women. Yet, I am engaged to a guy who loves me for who I am.  😘

                                            it's the most important thing to be confident and to feel happy. no matter if it's the clothes you're wearing or any other things…they represent your emotional feelings like happiness and sadness (or any other -ness) and transport them onto the outside to your fellow human beings.
                                            so looking at you and the way you're handeling/wearing things...you really feel happy with your life and that's a good thing to be...so keep doing what you're doing, no matter if with men or women 😉
