Snow, I like the high instep strap too, very unique - and love the soft toe and the way the leather is breaking in - but I agree they will get a different sole in the future but I am OK with them as they are until the right time comes. I did see where Tat did a resole (through Zip Stevenson) and as you noted so did Christophe. (Willie's in LA). But it's a fact - they are treacherous on ice/snow and you are best off leaving them in the closet in those conditions. Fortunately I'm "boot-rich" and have been wearing my White's when it's nasty out…

I bought deadstock Cat's Paw half soles for mine but I just can't bring myself to do it. Takeshi's triple sole is so awesome.
For now, these are just to be used when it isn't snowing. I haven't worn them in a while and it will be a while yet before I can. Bummer, but I think it's the right move. When it's time to resole I will consider the Cat's Paws.

MF Appaloosa to get me through a week or so of Disney fun. Still nice and crisp but a week of 100 % humidity may change that.

I believe the shrinkage was just about what was listed. I forgot to measure, but it definitely shrank down in size. It's a fairly loose fit from the pits down. Very comfortable. I'll try to measure when I get home, but I'd check SE & MF's site to compare.

I usually cuff my jeans which breaks it up a bit. I usually pair with 705 or cords. I don't typically wear them with jeans.

I had a pair of the Palladenims and eventually sold them because I didn't like the "all denim from the waist down" look. I love Palladium boots, though. Of the 4 pairs I've owned in the last 5 years, my favorites, and the ones I feel have been the most versatile, are my basic Pampa high boots in khaki.

@davito, million thanks for that. Sunday's post was from 49 weeks back. Deep and honest thanks for digging back that far and pulling out for me. Amazing you remembered it too.
@Chris/Summer, I kinda agree it'll likely be too much denim, especially considering I wear IHC-10+33+(634|Hawaii) already. The MF's saved my brain from thinking about other models, looks like I'll be looking into it - thanks Chris.
