@irish, my first boots were Fryes as well. I wore them really hard for around 2 years, 7 days a week, cycling to/from work etc. Ended up snapping the straps. I still go back and look @ them/the brand, love their products.

That fireplace Dracula/Troll/John Travolta looking thing is insanity. I love it. It just seems to stare at you. It would scare the shit out of me. Super dark!!! Your wife is sick in a very cool way!!!

Are you using a Munson last for the boots, Hemi?  They look great, by the way.

[Megatron1505]

Very nice G and Hemi, very clean design.

[Giles]

They do look pretty Munson like.  This is Hemi's description to me:

You will also notice that the toe is not completely symmetrical, that's because we last the toe by hand using 4 - 5 pleats. We don't like to skive the leather to thin or stretch it too much so we're not sacrificing quality for look. The leather I used on your boots is a bit stiffer but the Tannery can gently tenderise the hides in the future so they're a bit more pliable.

[Hemi]

We use a Munson style last. They were originally used to make boots for soldiers, and forestry/farm workers in New Zealand.

I'll make new patterns and lasts in the near future. The important thing for me now is getting the process and materials right.
