Mega, I'm always interested to her opinions about things as long as they're constructive so no worries!
I would never pay what Virgil's go for stateside, but right now I'm bidding and now they're a deal (well we'll see when what they really go for.) and to be honest, I would actually prefer that the heal was colored like green or something but I'm extravagant like that. And I'm pretty sure the leather is horween so it can't be that bad right?
And well, mainly I'm tired of wearing vans because I don't feel like myself in them anymore. So it is for fashion the most part I guess - but I also know that I do not need a workboot that weighs 20 pounds strapped to my foot because I will be dealing with the cons while never working in them enough to really appreciate the benefits.
Basically, I want something comfortable and considering that these Virgil's are going right now for a very reasonable price and they are among my favorite silhouettes I believe it's at least somewhat justifiable.
Thanks again for the help everybody, if I even get them I think that color should be versatile enough…

black leather jacket - can't go wrong no matter what color the boots/belt have!
for boots/shoes, i always try to match with the belt…mostly i'm wearing a black belt (ihb-02) to whatever color my shoes have...simply cuz i don't f^cking care
now that i've scored my dream pair of shoes (black shell), everything goes

Good response Ben, and I can totally see where you're coming from. I didn't know that Visvim were using Horween to be honest, never had it on any of mine but it has been a few years since I owned a pair.

Hey Ben, just my two cents but since you live in LA and there should be a number of places around where you can actually try on boots I would say to find a pair that you can try on for your first pair. There's nothing more annoying than buying expensive boots online that don't fit! Better to pay some extra money up front and be able to try some on and then have a better idea of your size in general.

Sf, don't think I ignored your last recommendation
I actually went to leather soul to try some indys, and they had a wopping 7 and a 13 - not exactly my size…..Also tried union as they stock visvim and they told me they'd probably have some Virgil's in a few months. So I'm gonna have to go in blind...
-
Haha no worries, leather soul is decently close to mister freedom and self edge so I stopped by there to chat…. And with union I learned my lesson and called ahead first!
Now is the waiting time though, because I'm definitely ready for some boots!
